Abstract

Although exostoses are not a rare finding, relatively few reports on these structures are available. The information on the concurrence of tori with exostoses is very limited because of the scarcity of cases reported in the literature. Herein we report a case of multiple buccal and palatal exostosis concurrent with maxillary and mandible in a feoderma 37-year-old male patient. The case was successfully managed by multiple elective osteoplastic surgery and no recurrence was detected after 1 year of follow-up. The etiology of the coexistence of multiple exostoses and tori is not yet definitely established in the literature. The absence of local clinical factors, such as occlusal trauma or periodontal disease in this case, raise suspicions that multifactorial genetic and functional factors may be responsible for the development of this condition.
