ABSTRACT
Osteomas are benign tumor composed of mature compact or cancellous bone.Generally,they are classified as peripheral(periosteal)osteoma and central(endosteal)osteoma by origin. Osteomas are essentially restricted to the craniofacial skeleton and are rarely diagnosed in other bones. Most jaw osteomas are detected in young adults and are generally asymptomatic, solitary lesion. The authors present a case of a endosteal osteoma of the mandible. The lesion was located beneath both the mandibular first premolars, about 2.5cm x 1.5cm size. Surgical excision of the lesion was performed and we obtained good result after operation.
