ABSTRACT

Cementoblastoma is a rare benign odontogenic tumor characterized by the formation of a mass of cementum or cementum-like tissue attached to the roots of a tooth. It is derived from ectomesenchyme. It is characterized by calcified cementum-like deposits produced by cementoblasts fused with the tooth root. In this article we report a case of cementoblastoma in a 20 year old male patient with brief review of literature.
