CBCT features of florid cemento-osseous dysplasia with coexisting lesions at different maturation stages: a case report and literature review.
Review in BMC oral health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundFlorid cemento-osseous dysplasia (FLCOD) is a begin fibro-osseous lesion occurring in the tooth-bearing regions of the jaws and is characterized by replacement of normal bone with fibrous connective tissue and cementum-like mineralized material. Most patients are asymptomatic and are diagnosed incidentally during radiographic examinations, and the condition may be misdiagnosed because of overlapping imaging features with other jaw lesions. Because the disease is usually asymptomatic and exhibits imaging features that overlap with those of several odontogenic and inflammatory lesions, accurate diagnosis remains challenging. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides high-resolution three-dimensional imaging that facilitates assessment of lesion extent, internal mineralization, and relationships with adjacent anatomical structures. We report a case of FLCOD exhibiting lesions at different maturation stages and emphasize the diagnostic value of CBCT in clinical decision-making. CASE PRESENTATION: A 41-year-old female presented with pain in the left mandibular posterior region for one week. Clinical examination revealed deep carious destruction of tooth 36 and occlusal caries involving teeth 46 and 47. Pulp vitality testing demonstrated loss of vitality in tooth 36, whereas all teeth associated with the cemento-osseous lesions responded normally. CBCT revealed bilateral multifocal mixed radiolucent-radiopaque lesions involving the posterior mandible characterized by well-defined borders, thin radiolucent rims, and variable internal mineralization corresponding to different maturation stages without obvious root resorption or cortical perforation or significant expansion. Based on the clinical findings, pulp vitality testing, and characteristic CBCT features, the patient was diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis of tooth 36, caries of teeth 46 and 47, and the cemento-osseous lesions were managed conservatively with periodic clinical and radiographic follow-up.
conclusionsCBCT plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis of FLCOD by accurately demonstrating lesion distribution, internal mineralization, and maturation stage. When interpreted together with pulp vitality testing, CBCT facilitates differentiation of FLCOD from inflammatory periapical lesions, reduces unnecessary invasive procedures, and supports appropriate long-term management.
