Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;Cemento-ossifying &ouml;oma is an infrequent growth considered as an osteogenic or &ouml;ous tumor. It is de&ouml;ned as a well-demarcated and occasionally encapsulated lesion consisting of &ouml;ous tissue containing variable amounts of 2, 3 mineralized material resembling bone (ossifying &ouml;oma), cementum (cementifying &ouml;oma), or both. This case report describes a 48 yrs old male patient with cemento-ossifying &ouml;oma involving right lower third molar and underlying bone. The clinical, surgical &ouml;ndings as well as the histological features are presented in this case. The rarity of this tumor prompts us to report this case.</p>
