Abstract

Benign cementoblastoma is a rare odontogenic tumor that usually occurs in the mandibular molar region.<BR>In this paper, we report a case of benign cementoblastoma occuring at the 7 root apex in a 23-year-old man. On X-ray examination, the tumor showed a circular radiopaque shadow with a clear margin, which was surrounded by a radiolucent zone of uniform width.<BR>The clinical diagnosis was a benign odontogenic tumor. The tumor and tooth (7) were surgically removed together on January 19, 1989. The histopathological diagnosis was a benign cementoblastoma. The patient has been in good condition with no recurrence for 5 years postoperatively.
