Updates to Article Attributes
Body
was changed:
Adenomatoid odontogenic tumours are rare and differ from most other dentition related lesions (see mandibular lesions) in that they more frequently occur in the maxilla(70%).
Epidemiology
They are also seen more frequently in females, most frequently in the second decade of life, where they.
Radiographic features
They present as an expansile radiolucentradiolucency with well circumscribed margins, most commonly in the maxilla (70%). They also contain a variable amount of punctate calcifications.
