Odontogenic tumors are any kind of abnormal growth in and around the jaw and teeth. 1  Many of these tumors are considered to be benign.  In unusual cases, odontogenic tumors are malignant, meaning they are likely to spread.
What are foodborne toxins? Foodborne toxins are toxins that are found in different foods that can cause illness when they are consumed. Some are naturally occurring toxins that are found in certain foods, and others are produced by bacteria that have contaminated a food item.
Food poisoning occurs when food or water contaminated with harmful germs (microbes), toxins or chemicals is eaten or drunk. When we think of food poisoning, we usually think of the typical gastroenteritis - an infection of the bowels (intestines) - that usually causes diarrhoea with or without being sick (vomiting). However, sometimes other symptoms or problems can arise from eating contaminated food.
