Abstract

Cementoblastoma is a benign ectomesenchymal odontogenic neoplasm that forms a mass of cementum or cementum-like tissue continuous with the tooth root. Cementoblastoma represents 1% to 6.2% of all odontogenic tumors, and occurs more than 75% arise in the mandible, with most cases arising in the molar and premolar regions. About 75% arises before the age of 30. Radiographically, it appears as a radiopaque mass with a thin radiolucent rim attached to the roots of a tooth. The recurrence rate is 37% in the current study and cortical expansion and perforation of the cortex are common findings in lesions that subsequently recurred. It is apparent that recurrence rate depends largely on the completeness of removal than any other factor. Here we present a 20 year old, female case of an unusual multiple recurrent cementoblastoma around a previous lesion which had been surgically excised 2 years ago.
