【 摘 要 】

Evaluation of enlarged follicles with unerupted teeth is always important because some changes may occur. One of the extremely rare conditions seen in dental follicles is multiple calcifying hyperplastic dental follicle. We report a case of multiple calcifying hyperplastic dental follicle. Radiographs showed that mandibular third molars had a pericoronal radiolucent zone delineated by a well-defined and sclerotic border. Microscopic examination revealed a combination of fibrous connective and small calcifications. Multiple calcifying hyperplastic dental follicle is a rare condition and its correct diagnosis is necessary to apply appropriate treatment.
