Zusammenfassung:This case study involves a 22-year-old male who experienced moderate pain in the left side of the mandible for two months. He was diagnosed with an osteoblastoma and treated with local excision, curettage and extraction of the involved teeth. Radiographic follow-up indicated that the site healed well. Clinical, radiographic and histopathologic features are discussed. Osteoblastoma requires interdisciplinary care and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of mixed-density lesions detected in the jaws.
