level questions: TUMORS OF ODONTOGENIC ORIGIN

QuestionAnswer
a swelling of any part of the body generally not caused by abnormal growth of tissue.TUMOR
swelling or growth of any tissue in the body without inflammationTUMOR
the growth comes from the odontogenic tissues - dental lamina, enamel organ, and the dental papillaEndodontic origin
A developmental odontogenic cyst found in an area where a tooth should have formed but is missing.PRIMORDIAL CYST
PRIMORDIAL CYST: commonly seen inMandibular third molars
Originates after the crown of the tooth has been completely formed by the accumulation of fluid between the reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crownDENTIGEROUS CYST (FOLLICULAR CYST)
Smooth, unilocular lesion with thin sclerotic lineDENTIGEROUS CYST (FOLLICULAR CYST)
Radioluscent area may appear to project laterally from the tooth crownLATERAL DENTIGEROUS CYSTS
Cysts surrounds the entire crown of the tooth and other adjacent areasCIRCUMFERENTIAL DENTIGEROUS CYSTS
A little bigger than central, covering a bigger portion of the crownCIRCUMFERENTIAL DENTIGEROUS CYSTS
Associated with unerupted tooth; the tooth is present but unerupted; 3rd molarCIRCUMFERENTIAL DENTIGEROUS CYSTS
CIRCUMFERENTIAL DENTIGEROUS CYSTS: TXMARSUPIALIZATION; ENUCLEATION
cutting a slit on the cyst or abscess; if the cyst is too bigMARSUPIALIZATION
removal of the entire cyst. So if the cyst is small and does not encroach on vital organs or nervesENUCLEATION
This is associated with erupting deciduous teeth or permanent teeth in childrenERUPTION CYST
Circumscribed, fluctuant, often translucent swelling of the alveolar ridge over the site of the erupting toothERUPTION CYST
Most common periodontal cystAPICAL PERIODONTAL CYSTS
Result of infection via pulp chamber and root canal cariesAPICAL PERIODONTAL CYSTS
cyst that most likely results when rests of epithelial cells in the periodontal ligament are simulated by inflammatory products from a non vital tooth.RADICULAR  CYST
lateral surface of root; Small, seldom over 1 cm in diameter; May or may not be well circumscribedLATERAL PERIODONTAL CYST
If it is seen on the mandibular bicuspid area ano ang pwede mong maconfuse or mapagbaliktad sa lateral periodontal cyst?mental foramen
root end surgery or root end disection of the tooth to remove the apical area involved with the cystapicoectomy
Multiple, occasionally solitary, nodules on alveolar ridge of a newborn or very young infantsDENTAL LAMINA CYST OF THE NEWBORN
Small discrete white swelling of the alveolar ridge, blanched appearance (they appear whiter than the adjacent normal tissues)DENTAL LAMINA CYST OF THE NEWBORN
Arises from cystic transformation of dental lamina and traumatic implantation of surface epitheliumGINGIVAL CYST OF THE ADULT
Arises from cystic transformation of dental lamina and traumatic implantation of surface epithelium; Same color as adjacent normal mucosaGINGIVAL CYST OF THE ADULT
Parakeratinized surface which is typically corrugatedODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST
Remarkable uniformity of thickness of the epithelium, usually ranging from 6 to 10 cells thickODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST
Prominent palisaded, polarized basal layer of cells often described as picket fence or tombstone appearanceODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST
pain, soft tissue swelling, expansion of bone, drainage and various neurologic manifestations such as paresthesia of the lip or teethODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST
ODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST: majority of cysts occur in the mandibleRamus, molar area & anterior mandibular area
ODONTOGENIC KERATOCYST: majority of cysts occur in the maxilla3rd molar area and cuspid region
a hereditary condition transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait with high penetrance and variable expressivityJAW CYST-BASAL CELL NEVUS- BIFID RIB SYNDROME
The signs and symptoms of tumor appears with other signs and symptoms not located in the oral cavityJAW CYST-BASAL CELL NEVUS- BIFID RIB SYNDROME
rare developmental odontogenic cyst with notable presence of histopathological features which include a cystic lining demonstrating characteristic "Ghost" epithelial cells with a propensity to calcify.CALCIFYING ODONTOGENIC CYST
