Radiographic features These<unk> s are usually discovered using dental radiographs. They will appear as unilocular (one chamber), multilocular (multiple chambers) or mixed radiolucencies with some radiopaque deposits of differing sizes and opacities. Irregular calcifications may be seen in some cases. They are often located in a periapical or lateral periodontal relationship to adjacent teeth. CT Scan CT scans can also be used to view the internal structures of the lesions and the involvement of neighboring structures. It is helpful in clinical diagnoses and treatment planning. They reveal vital characteristics that are not shown or detected in a dental radiograph. They are used to confirm the presence of calcifications along the<unk>  wall that were not detected in the radiographic images. Histology In general, the epithelium seen is of stratified squamous type and is 5–8 cells thick. Additionally, focal areas of stellate reticulum like cells are seen and near the basement membrane ameloblast-like cells may be seen. Each type of<unk>  shows special features of which there are three types: 1)Type 1A. Ghost cells and dentinoid are seen. 2)Type 1B. Formation of calcified tissues in the lumen of the<unk>  wall showing dystrophic calcification. Proliferation of tissues is similar to an Ameloblastic Fibroma. 3)Type 1C. Ameloblast-like proliferation in the connective tissue and lumen of the<unk>  may be seen.
