Abstract

A case of osteoid osteoma in the mandible of a 19-year-old female around the right preauricular area was presented. Panoramic radiograph showed a mixed appearance, well-circumscribed mass near the right mandibular condylar neck and also showed radiopaque masses on the lateral side of the mandible near apexes of the mandibular molar teeth. For obtaining more definitively location and definition of these lesions, detailed radiological examination was performed by using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). CBCT provides three-dimensional images and has proved to be a useful diagnosis of osteoid osteoma and multiple lymph nodes.
