Multiple Maxillary Tuberosity Exostosis
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Multiple intra oral bony tori and exostosis have often been reported in the literature to occur in the mandible. In the maxillary arch the tori has been reported to occur usually in the midline and has been termed as torus palatinus. The present case is novel as it reports a case of multiple exostoses on the lateral aspects of the slopes of the palate in the region of maxillary tuberosity where it rarely reported. A single bony extension also existed beneath the overlying palatine rugae. Multiple minute ulcerations were also observed distant to the site of bony exostosis.
