Abstract

Abstract: Stafne's Bone Cavity (SBC) is a well described but uncommon asymptomatic pseudocyst of the mandible. Most commonly occurring in the posterior mandible, presentations anterior to the mental foramen are extremely rare and warrant thorough investigation. This case describes the presentation of a 55-year-old male with an anteriorly-positioned SBC that resembled asymptomatic dental pathology. Clinicians should be aware of SBCs as a differential diagnosis for radiolucent lesions of the mandible. CPD/Clinical Relevance: To raise awareness of radiolucent lesions to dental professionals in both general and specialist settings.
