Abstrakt: Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, sex predilection and treatment modalities of OKC in Central India.
Materials and Methods: Total 2900 patients were screened from various hospitals and centers. Age of patients and site of lesion was recorded. OKC was classified into initial, moderate and advanced depending on the radiological involvement and treatment modalities given with respect to the extent of the OKC.
Result: Total 49 patients were diagnosed with the presence of OKC. It was found that mostly it is common in 3rd and 4th decades, with the mean age 28 years in males and 31 years in females. The most common site of occurrence was angle of mandible and the ramus region. The treatment of OKC, on the basis of the radiographic classification, gives excellent results with minimum recurrences.
Conclusion: The most common age and site occurrence was relevant with that of previous studies (Browne, Br Dent J 128(5):225-231, 1970, Chen and Lin, Gaoxiong Yi Xue Ke Xue Za Zhi 2(9):601-607, 1986). This study concluded by considering multicentric incidence, prevalence of OKC in Central India, that the population should be screened for OKC. The screening should be done by clinical, radiological and histopathological. While screening all the parameters should be considered to diagnose and treat the patients for the prevention of morbidity.
