They develops as neoplasias from the dental

of them have the tendency towards
malignant transformation.
Because growth occurs only slowly,
asymptomatically and without any changes
in mucosal appearance, the existence of such
lesions in their early stages is usually
detected only by chance, or after the
development of some structural deformation.

Central giant cell granuloma
Or Central Reparative Giant cell Granuloma,
this type of granuloma grows expansively
within the bone and occurs more frequently
in female under age of 25 than in males.
It characterized by asymptomatic swelling of
the affected jaw that is manifested by facial
asymmetry

Sarcoma
This tumor, which affects males twice as
females, exhibit a predilection for the
mandible.
Radiographically, bone destruction as well as
new bone formation and osteolysis can be
observed, along with perforation of the
compact bone with spicules (sunrays
effect), where the lesion borders on the
