Topics to Practice

1. Ameloblastoma

FUPA-D for types: Follicular, Unicystic, Plexiform, Acanthomatous, Desmoplastic. Soap bubble = Ameloblastoma. Always posterior mandible.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 9/10
2. OKC / Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumor

Parakeratinized (NOT ortho). Satellite cysts = high recurrence. Gorlin syndrome = multiple OKCs.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 8/10
3. Dentigerous Cyst

Attached at CEJ. Most common developmental cyst. Can transform to ameloblastoma or SCC.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 7/10
4. Radicular Cyst

Most common odontogenic cyst overall. From epithelial rests of Malassez. Rushton bodies = hyaline bodies.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 7/10
5. Other Odontogenic Tumors (Odontoma, CEOT, Myxoma)

Most common odontogenic tumor = Odontoma. CEOT = Pindborg tumor = Liesegang rings = amyloid. Myxoma = honeycomb/tennis racket pattern.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 8/10
6. Salivary Gland Tumors

Most common benign = Pleomorphic adenoma. Most common malignant = Mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Warthin = papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum = bilateral.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 9/10
7. Leukoplakia, OSMF, Erythroplakia

Highest malignant potential = Erythroplakia. OSMF = areca nut. Leukoplakia = most common premalignant. Speckled leukoplakia = highest risk among leukoplakias.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 10/10
8. Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Most common oral malignancy. Verrucous carcinoma = Ackerman tumor = broad pushing borders = good prognosis. TNM staging is HIGH YIELD.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 8/10
9. Pemphigus vs Pemphigoid

Pemphigus = INTRAepithelial (fishnet IgG). Pemphigoid = SUBepithelial (linear IgG at BMZ). Tzanck cells = Pemphigus. Nikolsky sign = both.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 7/10
10. Other Cysts (Nasopalatine, Lateral Periodontal, Gorlin)

Most common non-odontogenic cyst = Nasopalatine duct cyst. Botryoid = multilocular lateral periodontal. Gorlin cyst = Ghost cells.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 5/10
11. Giant Cell Lesions & Bone Pathology

CGCG vs Brown tumor of hyperparathyroidism = histologically IDENTICAL. Paget disease = Cotton wool skull, elevated alkaline phosphatase.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 6/10
12. Oral Infections (Candida, TB, Syphilis, HIV)

Oral hairy leukoplakia = EBV = pathognomonic for HIV. Hutchinson teeth = congenital syphilis. Pseudomembranous = most common candidiasis.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 6/10
13. Dental Developmental Anomalies

Dens in dente = most common in lateral incisor. Taurodontism = bull teeth. Gemination = 1 tooth tries to split. Fusion = 2 teeth join.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 5/10
14. Cementum Pathology & Periapical Lesions

Hypercementosis = Paget disease link. Periapical granuloma (most common) > Periapical cyst > Periapical abscess.

📖 Study NotesFrequency: 4/10
