Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate of radiographic pattern and relative frequency of idiopathic osteosclerosis (IO) and condensing osteitis (CO) in panoramic radiographs.
Totally 411 panoramic radiographies were randomly selected from patients referred to Radiology Department of Faculty of Dentistry, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences. Descriptive characteristics of radiopacities, including shape, border, localization, and dental relationship, were recorded. The Chi-squared test was used.
IO was detected in 31 (7.5%) patients and 22 (68.8%) lesions had exact border while their shape was mostly irregular. About 17 (53.1%) lesions were apical, and 13 (40.6%) lesions had no relation to the teeth. The most involved teeth were the second premolar (28.1%) and first molar (25%). Moreover, CO was detected in 32 (7.8%) patients. 17 (53.1%) lesions had an ill-defined border, and their shape was mostly irregular (65.6%) with ill-defined border. Around 18 (56.3%) lesions were apical, and 11 (34.4) lesions were apical and interradicular. The most involved teeth were the second premolar (59.4%) and the first molar (21.9%).
The results demonstrated that relative frequency of IO in the selected population was 7.5% and for CO, it was 7.8%.

] They may happen at root apexes, among the roots, or in a distinct site away from the teeth, first in the premolar/molar region and with a preference for the mandibular arch. Similar radiopaque region may occur in the periapical areas of teeth with nonessential or much inflamed pulps; these lesions most likely characterize a reaction to a low-grade inflammatory inducer. Such passive region nominated as condensing osteitis (CO) or focal chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis and should not be incorporated underdetermine of IO.[<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>

<p>This study designed as descriptive study composed of 411 panoramic radiography of patients who referred to the Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology Service of Dentistry Faculty, Tabriz University of Medical. All radiographs achieved by an orthopantomography device (planmeca proline CC 2002, 60–80 kVp, 8–10 mA, 12.8 s exposure time, Helsinki, Finland) by X-ray technician who had a minimum working skill of 5 years. Then, 6-inch green-sensitive panoramic film (Medical, Konica Co., Japan) was used to take radiography.</p>
<p>All images were examined by a specialist in oral and maxillofacial radiology.</p>
<p>Lesions determined as CO if it linked with chronic inflammation. Mostly, these lesions enclosed the apex of teeth with deep caries or large restorations. But, the lesions did not display any clear link to inflammation, well determined, and were not ruled out by the cases listed above were recognized as IO. The following radiopacities were specially omitted:[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>

<p>This study performed on panoramic radiographs of 411 patients (226 females, 185 males), aged 6–95 years (mean age: 33.8 ± 13.66).</p>
<p>There were 32 IO lesions in 31 (7.5%) subjects which mean age was 30.52 years, and other patients were 34.06 (<italic>P</italic>
> 0.05). These 31 consisted of 23 females and eight males (<italic>P</italic>
< 0.05).</p>
<p>Moreover, 32 CO lesions in 32 subjects (7.8%) were determined that mean age was 34.59 years and in other was 33.73 years (<italic>P</italic>
> 0.05). These 32 patients contained 15 females and 17 males (<italic>P</italic>
> 0.05).</p>
<p>Figures <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">2</xref>
and <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">3</xref>
showed the age distribution of patient in different decades of life that had IO and CO lesions. According to the results, the frequency of IO lesions was higher in the third, second, and fourth decades of life, respectively, than in other periods and for CO lesions were more in the fourth, second, and fifth decade of life.</p>

<p>The distributions of IO and CO with respect to shape and border were given in <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">Table 1</xref>
. In the IO lesion, the most shape was irregular form, and Pearson Chi-square analysis showed this difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>

<p>The distributions of IO and CO with respect to localization and relationship to teeth of lesion are showed in <xref ref-type="table" rid="T2">Table 2</xref>
. For IO lesions, the most involved tooth was second premolar (28.1%) and first molar (25%). Of the 32 IO lesions, thirty subjects found in mandibular and two subjects in maxillary of fourth and sixth teeth. In addition, the most lesions were apical and from 40.6% of lesion that was separate from teeth, mean of distance was 15.64 mm (2–30 mm). But for CO lesions, the most involved tooth was the second premolar (59.4%) and the first molar (21.9%). Among the 32 CO lesions, 31 cases related to mandibular and only in maxillary of the first tooth. On the other hand, the most lesion was apical and then apical and interradicular. Moreover, just one CO found that had 5 mm distance from the tooth.</p>

<sec sec-type="discussion" id="sec1-4"><title>DISCUSSION</title>
<p>Many of earlier studies investigated the frequency of IO and CO lesions.[<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
<xref rid="ref13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
<xref rid="ref14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
<xref rid="ref15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>

] In the present study, of 411 panoramic radiographic the frequency of IO lesions was 7.5% and CO was 7.8%. In the previous literature, frequency of radiopaque lesions reported as ranges from 3.3% to 31.0%.[<xref rid="ref7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
<xref rid="ref17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
<xref rid="ref18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
] Geist and Katz detected 5.4% frequency of IO in 1921 full-mouth intraoral radiographic investigations[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
] and IO frequency of 1047 panoramaric radiographs was 6.1% which was two-third of 1203 panoramaric radiographs in Japanese dental outpatients.[<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
<xref rid="ref19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] Lu <italic>et al</italic>
. in 2003 reported the frequency of IO in South Taiwan population as 9.43% that probably due to genetic factors and breeding the lesion was seen more in the East population.[<xref rid="ref20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>
] But this range was two times higher than other studies.[<xref rid="ref3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
]</p>
<p>On the other hand, Eliasson <italic>et al</italic>
. reported the frequency of CO in 1149 periapical radiographs to 2%[<xref rid="ref21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
] while in the other study, with little sample size, it is found 6% CO.[<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
] The difference between the results obtained in this study could be evaluated by several aspects with previous studies. First, the study was performed on panoramic radiographs and due to the difference in image quality, especially in the anterior region, there were not comparable by results of studies on periapical radiographs. The results of other studies have reported a higher prevalence of radiopaque IO and CO lesions.[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
<xref rid="ref22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
<xref rid="ref23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
] The second reason for the difference between the results was related to different criteria. For example, in this study radiopaque of edentulous areas was omitted because it is probably formed after tooth extraction. Moreover, other factors such as differences of genetic and diet may also be effective at the difference frequency. In the present study, the frequency of IO was higher in females and the incidence CO had no differences between women and men. But according to the Miloglu <italic>et al</italic>
., the frequency of IO and CO was higher in Turkish women than men.[<xref rid="ref24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
] In addition, Geist and Katz and McDonnell, who determined women to men ratio of 1.5:1 and 2:1, respectively.[<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
] Similarly, Avramidou <italic>et al</italic>
. identified that female patients have more radiopaque lesion than male in a sample of Greek patients.[<xref rid="ref25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
] However, other study showed no difference between the incidence in female and male.[<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
<xref rid="ref19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] In the present study, the frequency of CO increased with age until the fourth decade of life that related to tooth decay. But in this study, a decrease of CO in fifth and higher decade of life could be due to loss of tooth decay in older age that in this study edentulous sites were not examined. On the other hand, the frequency of IO was high in the third decade of life. The frequency of both radiopaque was more common in mandibular that is consistent with previous studies.[<xref rid="ref3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
<xref rid="ref19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] This case could be the result of taking panoramic radiographs because the image of anatomic structures in mandibular was not clear than maxillary and be less superimposition. In addition, differences in the incidence of CO and IO were related to anatomy of jaw bone and blood flow in jaw, although the cause of the lesions is unknown. In this study, IO and CO were more in premolar and then in a molar. The result of Miloglu <italic>et al</italic>
. showed that IO was more in premolar and CO in a molar.[<xref rid="ref24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
] The reason of high frequency of IO in premolar was attributed to remain of premolar root and replacement with bone sclerotic. A histological investigation by Henrikson clarified the existence of bone sclerotic at the site of IO.[<xref rid="ref26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
] Further, in this study, the most lesions were periapical which matched by Geist and Katz.[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
] While in another study, the most lesions had no relationship by teeth.[<xref rid="ref19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
] In addition, most of the lesions were irregular and spherical radiopaque with well-defined border that was similar to other results.[<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
<xref rid="ref3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>

<sec sec-type="conclusions" id="sec1-5"><title>CONCLUSION</title>
<p>In the light of these findings, we could demonstrate that relative frequency of IO in Iranian population is 7.5% and for CO, it is 7.8%. IO was more prevalent in women in mandibular and in the third decade of life, but CO lesion had no difference between women and men. Moreover, CO similar to IO was more in mandibular and showed high rate in the fourth decade of life.</p>
