Abstract

Solitary central osteomas of the jaw seem to be especially rare lesions; since 1955, only 12 cases have been reported and 4 of these were located in the maxilla. Osteomas are benign osteogenic lesions considered as real tumours but without infiltrative or metastatic potential. Their growth potential is usually limited, but certain rare and large cases of peripheral osteoma are described in literature. Although surgery is recommended, there are no reports of malignant transformation. In this study, we describe successful implant rehabilitation in a patient with a central osteoma of the maxilla with immediate loading in a fresh extraction socket.
