Abstract

States of chronic parathyroid hypersecretion, related to a primitive parathyroid abnormality (adenoma, hyperplasia), or to a cause of chronic calcipenia (renal failure, vitamin D deficiency…) have a major impact on bone remodeling, alveolodental structures. Thinning of the lamina dura, maxillary or mandibular brown tumors, giant cell epulis are the most emblematic signs of the primary hyperparathyroidism. Other expressions are related to genetic factors such as fibrous tumors of the jaw in conjunction with mutations in the gene coding for parafibromin.
