Published: November 2020

Introduction: The dental pulp is completely normal in teeth with periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia. However, orthodontic and endodontic treatments are contraindicated in cases with this injury.

Objective: Present some biological, clinical and imaging reasons opposing these contraindications and questioning which are the real ones impediments and the reasons for the lack of research on the disease, analyzing cases submitted to orthopedic treatment under controlled and ethically approved conditions.

Conclusion: The clinician can act safely based in available knowledge and aware of the possible consequences of orthodontic movement in teeth with periapical cemento-osseous dysplasia, as well as in the proper way of making a safe and definitive diagnosis.

Cemento-osseous dysplasias (CODs) are rare lesions of the jawbone. Their occurrence, localization, type, size, and shape can vary between cases. This fibro-osseous lesion is typically found in the jaw near tooth-bearing areas and is often asymptomatic, discovered incidentally, and may be associated with the periapical region of the teeth.

Key Clinical Message: Cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) belongs to a group of fibrous osseous disorders that can masquerade as periapical inflammatory conditions in the jawbones. We present a rare case of COD occurring in a patient who also had periapical periodontitis concurrently. When faced with a patient exhibiting no symptoms, diagnosis may be challenging.

Cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) is classified, by the World Health Organization as a benign fibro-osseous lesion related to the tooth and periapical area of the jaws and is considered as a benign reactive process appearing from the apical periodontium in close relation with the apices of teeth. Usually, it is asymptomatic, discovered accidentally, and affecting particularly middle-aged African women. There are four subtypes distinguished of the lesion: periapical (PCOD), focal (FCOD), florid (FLCOD) and familial florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FFLCOD).

Objectives: The objective of this study was to identify treatment indications for symptomatic and asymptomatic florid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FCOD) in adult patients and explore relationships between clinical variables and radiographic findings (PROSPERO # CRD42023411228).

Study Design: A systematic review was conducted by independent investigators using databases: PubMed, ProQuest, Embase, Web of Science, Dentistry and Oral Sciences Database (DOSS), and TRIP to identify studies on FCOD treatment options in adults. Inclusion criteria for this systematic review included: originally in English; open-access; published between 2001 and 2021.

Interdisciplinary care in the management of complex pathology is critical to ensure patients receive predictable, evidence-based treatment. The authors report the unique case of a healthy 38-year-old female patient who presented to a private endodontics practice with a radiopaque lesion associated with the root of tooth No. 20.
