Alta Stomatology is an innovative oral disease research company dedicated to developing effective solutions for osseous dysplasia. Osseous dysplasia, characterized by the replacement of normal bone with fibrous tissue containing mineralized substances consisting of bone, cementum, or both, belongs to the group of fibro-osseous lesions of the jaws. At Alta Stomatology, we're dedicated to offering one-stop services for osseous dysplasia research, including whole-genome sequencing, the development of novel therapies, and the molecular mechanisms behind this disorder. If you have any needs, please feel free to contact us.

Research on Osseous Dysplasias

Osseous dysplasias, also known as fibro-osseous lesions, are a condition where normal bone is replaced by fibrous tissue and abnormally formed bone. These lesions can happen anywhere in the body but are most common in the jaw (mandible and maxilla). Painless and slow-growing, they are often discovered incidentally on dental x-rays with most patients not having any symptoms. Osseous dysplasias can be divided into three types: periapical cemental dysplasia, focal cemento-osseous dysplasia, and florid cemento-osseous dysplasia. These entities share similar microscopic features. The difference between these types lies in their locations in the mouth and the extent of the lesions.

Despite the benign nature of osseous dysplasias, they can sometimes cause complications. For example, in some cases where the normal bone is replaced, there may be inadequate blood supply leading to a condition called avascular necrosis. Osseous dysplasias was reported as the most common fibro-osseous lesion of the jaws in many studies. Although the aetiology and pathogenesis remain unknown, the lesions are assumed to originate from the periodontal ligament due to their proximity to the teeth and the formation of cementum-like calcifications and may be the result of an idiopathic/reactive response caused by a disturbance in bone metabolism.
