Cementoblastoma is a benign odontogenic neoplasm accounting for less than 0.69%-8% of all odontogenic tumours and is characterised by the presence of sheets of cementum-like tissue demonstrating large number of reversal lines. It shows an unlimited growth potential and a recurrence rate as high as 37.1%. It most commonly affects the permanent mandibular molars. This paper presents the third reported case of cementoblastoma affecting the deciduous maxillary posterior dentition. A 12-year-old male patient reported to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology with a chief complaint of pain and swelling in relation to the deciduous maxillary left second molar.

“…The typical clinical presentation of cementoblastoma includes: male or female under 30-years-old, can be painful or asymptomatic, swelling, located in the premolar/molar region, [1,4,6,10,11,12,13], more frequently in the mandible [1,4,6,7,10,12,11,12,13,14,15,16]. Previous studies have reported the occurrence of cementoblastoma in the right maxillary and mandibular canine [6,8], right upper posterior tooth region [1], maxillary central incisor [7], mandibular first molar [14] and maxillary right first molar [4]. In the case described here, a tumor was identified in the left posterior maxilla of a 52-year-old female.…”

“…The majority of cementoblastomas are located in the mandible, most commonly in the molar region [1,2,4,5,6,7]. There is no gender predisposition [2,6,7,8], and the age of occurrence ranges from 8 to 44 years [2], with the highest incidence in the second and third decades of life [2,4,6,7,8,9]. This paper describes an unusal case of a patient who was diagnosed with cementoblastoma based on radiographic, surgical, and histological findings.…”

Cementoblastoma is characterized by the formation of cementum-like tissue attached to the root of a tooth. It is a benign neoplasm with odontogenic mesenchymal origin, and is considered the only true neoplasm of cemental origin. Cementoblastomas are usually located in the mandible, the majority of which affect the permanent first molar. There is no distinct gender preference and the mean age of occurrence is approximately 20 years of age. The lesion is usually identified as well defined, radiopaque, delimited by a cortical border, and with a well-defined radiolucent band just inside this cortical border. Root resorption and loss of the root outline are commonly associated with the cementoblastoma. The only treatment is enucleation of the lesion with removal of the associated tooth. Here, we present an unusual cementoblastoma case in a 52-year-old woman Case Study

“…On rare occasions, an impacted tooth, multiple teeth, or a deciduous tooth may be affected as well1578. To our knowledge, there have been 8 reported cases of cementoblastoma that developed on anterior jaws in the literature910111213141516, with only two of them located in the mandible910. One case was related to an impacted permanent incisor9, while the other case was related to a deciduous incisor10.…”

A benign cementoblastoma, which is another name for a true cementoma, is a rare neoplasm that develops from odontogenic ectomesenchyme. It is characterized by a mineralized mass attached to the apex of the root produced by neoplastic cementoblasts. More than 75% of cases arise in the mandible, with 90% of them manifesting in the molar and premolar regions. This neoplasm occurs most commonly in children and young adults, with males being affected slightly more than females. Radiographically, the tumor is observed as a well-defined radiopaque mass that is fused to a tooth root and is surrounded by a radiolucent rim. The treatment of benign cementoblastoma consists of removal of the lesion and extraction of the affected tooth. This report presents an unusual case of benign cementoblastoma in a 31-year-old female, presenting as a densely mineralized mass seen at the apex of the impacted right mandibular canine tooth on radiographs.
