Abstract

The jaws are complicated structures in anatomy that house many different tissues. Embedded within these tissues lie the remains of tooth development that sometimes results in pathological conditions. Odontogenic tumors with benign epithelial characterizations constitute a particular group developing from cells of epithelium involved in tooth formation. Although being usually slow growing and non-aggressive, these lesions could be associated with considerable problems due to their location or capacity for expansion.This article explores the clinical challenges associated with diagnosing benign epithelial odontogenic tumors. Also, this paper looks into the specificities of four most common types such as ameloblastoma, adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, squamous odontogenic tumour and calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour. The characteristic signs, symptoms and radiographic presentations as well as histological profiles at each type may enable clinicians to improve their diagnostic accuracy leading to appropriate management directions. Therefore, it is important to intervene early before complications occur so as to ensure favorable patient outcomes from this ailment that can manifest either on soft or even hard tissue surfaces.
