title: Benign osteoblastoma of the mandible.
abstract: A rare case of benign osteoblastoma of the mandible, with clinical, radiologic, and histologic findings, is reported. The difference between benign osteoblastoma and osteoid osteoma is discussed, since these lesions share similar features that are seen in the case presented. It is suggested that both lesions should be diagnosed as one entity.
