Abstract
Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia is an uncommon disease of the jaws. T his article reports the case of a 49-year-old black woman who was diag nosed with florid cemento-osseous dysplasia on the basis of convention al radiographic findings. Computed tomography and three-dimensional im aging of the mandible were performed, and they enabled detailed locali zation of the bone defects. The role of computed tomography in the eva luation of cemento-osseous lesions is discussed.
