Abstract

Objectives: This review aims to analyze the role of digital panoramic radiography in identifying soft tissue calcifications in the mandibular region, summarize the prevalence and distribution of these calcifications based on recent literature (2018–2023), and critically evaluate the diagnostic necessity and relevance of complementary imaging modalities (CBCT, CT, MRI, and ultrasonography) for definitive characterization in each specific type of calcification. Review: Soft tissue calcifications in the maxillofacial region are frequently detected as incidental findings on panoramic radiographs performed for routine dental evaluations. Although panoramic radiography is not the first-line modality for soft tissue assessment due to the superimposition of anatomical structures and reduced contrast resolution, its wide coverage enables visualization of a variety of calcified entities. Based on the reviewed studies, the most frequently detected calcifications include sialoliths, carotid artery calcifications, tonsilloliths, stylohyoid ligament calcification, phleboliths, and calcified lymph nodes. Prevalence varies widely between populations (5.4–46.9%) and increases significantly with age, particularly in individuals over 40 years old. Gender association remains inconsistent across studies. Panoramic radiography demonstrates value in identifying potentially clinically significant findings, such as carotid artery atheroma, which may indicate increased systemic vascular risk. However, localization and characterization accuracy remain limited, and advanced imaging modalities such as CBCT and MRI demonstrate superior capability in differentiating tissue origin and defining lesion morphology. Conclusion: The most common soft tissue calcifications include sialoliths in the ramus or angle of the mandible, followed by calcifications of the carotid artery, stylohyoid ligament, phleboliths, tonsilloliths, and antroliths. The highest distribution is observed in the submandibular gland, followed by the parotid gland. Soft tissue calcifications are more prevalent in the middle-aged population, followed by young adults, and are more frequently found in women.

Abstract

Objectives: This case report aims to examine the image of an ectopic canine impaction using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Case Report: A 23-year-old man came to our hospital with complaints of irregular, spaced teeth and a protruding sensation in his gums. There was no history of systemic disease. CBCT examination was performed. Multiplanar reconstruction showed the position of the impacted canine tooth with the crown facing labially and the root facing palatally. The position of the canine tooth caused the crown and root to penetrate the buccal and palatal cortical bone surfaces. Conclusion: CBCT 3D effectively assesses the position of the impacted canine tooth, including its crown and root, and evaluates its relationship with surrounding structures. This assessment is crucial for determining treatment prognosis, as conventional radiography may misinterpret the tooth's position.

Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to provide insights into the characteristics of root resorption associated with ameloblastoma as detected on digital radiography. Review: Root resorption is a pathological process marked by the progressive loss of the root structure, which may result from bacterial infection, traumatic injury, or chemical irritation. Ameloblastoma frequently exhibits distinctive patterns of root resorption, often presenting as blunted or sharply demarcated margins on digital radiographs. Conclusion: Ameloblastoma is known for its high recurrence rate, necessitating comprehensive surgical excision to minimize the likelihood of recurrence. Surgical management often includes the removal of the affected teeth along with the tumor. These treatment decisions are generally guided by histopathological confirmation through incisional biopsy, as several lesions can mimic ameloblastoma despite characteristic radiographic findings such as root resorption.

Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this case study is to report a case of quite painful facial swelling observed on a panoramic radiograph and diagnosed as Bilateral Mumps.   Case Report: A 34-year-old woman came to the Radiology Department with complaints of throbbing pain accompanied by swelling in the right and left mandible. The swelling has been present for 5 days, and the pain worsens when eating. In addition, the patient complains of having a fever and being unable to sleep. Physical examination revealed a body temperature of 38.6°C; the patient appeared lethargic and weak. Extraoral examination shows the lower part of the face is swollen, symmetrical between the left and right sides, with increased surface temperature of the lesion, and upon palpation, it feels soft and painful when touched. During the intraoral examination, no swelling was observed. The results of the panoramic radiograph examination show a diffuse radiolucent image spread from the angle to the ramus of the left and right mandible. There are no changes in the structure of the cortical bone of the mandible. From the panoramic examination, a suspect radiodiagnosis of bilateral mumps on the right and left mandible was found. Conclusion: Mumps is an infection of the salivary glands caused by a virus. On panoramic radiography, the image is more indicative of the formation of osteolytic lesions in the form of radiolucent foci with varying diameters and ill-defined borders. Pockets spread in the inflamed area, and in this case, panoramic radiography can recognize the condition.

Abstract

Objectives: The objective of this case report is to document the incidental finding in tooth 34 through panoramic radiography and discuss whether it falls into the category of dens invaginatus or Vertucci’s root canal morphology variations. Case Report: A 13-year-old male patient presented to RSGMP UNHAS with complaints of a decayed and painful lower left back tooth. Clinical examination revealed deep caries with perforation in tooth 35, and a periapical abscess was diagnosed. Panoramic and periapical radiographs were taken for diagnostic purposes. Radiographic analysis focused on identifying variations in the root morphology of adjacent teeth, specifically tooth 34. Conclusion: The incidental finding in tooth 34 through panoramic radiography emphasizes the importance of routine radiographic examinations in clinical practice. Early diagnosis and a clear understanding of this dental developmental anomaly are vital to ensuring the patient’s optimal oral health outcomes.

Abstract

Objectives: This case report is aimed to report radiographic features of complex odontoma with mandibular third molar agenesis an incidental rare case. Case Report: A 22-year-old female presented to the Dental Hospital Mulawarman University with a complaint of pain accompanied by tooth sensitivity in the maxillary molar. Extraoral clinical examination revealed no abnormal findings. Intraoral clinical examination showed a dental restoration on tooth 16. Radiographic findings revealed a radiopaque area suggestive of a restorative material, accompanied by a radiolucent lesion extending from the disto-occlusal region to the pulp chamber of tooth 16. Incidentally, an irregular, well-defined, corticated lesion was observed in the mandible region, associated with the absence of tooth 38. These findings were consistent with a complex odontoma occurring in conjunction with agenesis of the mandible third molar. Conclusion: In this case, unilateral irregular round radiopaque well–defined corticated and the absence of third molar teeth in the mandible were found as the radiographic features that led to the suspect radiodiagnosis of a complex odontoma with agenesis of the third molar.
