Abstract
Florid cementoosseous dysplasia (FCOD) is rare, benign, fibroosseous, and multifocal dysplastic lesion of the
jaw. FCOD exhibits multiple radiopaque cemetum-like masses distributed throughout the jaws. It characteristically
affects the jaws of middle-aged black women, is generally asymptomatic, usually detected during radiological
examination. FCOD associated with multiple impacted teeth and bone expansion is a rare. Only a few familial cases have
reported in the literature. This is a report of a 48-year-old female patient diagnosed with FCOD from clinical,
radiological findings. It is a case of the nonfamilial FCOD with many impacted teeth and osteoma.
