  • Title: Mandibular deformity associated with Paget's disease. Case report.
    Author: Thomas DW, Tate RJ, Shepherd JP.
    Journal: Aust Dent J; 1994 Jun; 39(3):162-4. PubMed ID: 8067932.
    Abstract:
    Paget's disease (osteitis deformans) and osteoporosis represent the commonest systemic bone disorders. Clinically Paget's disease may be mono-, or polyostotic, and is characterized by excessive and disorganized formation and resorption of bone. It may affect any of the facial bones, most notably the skull and the jaws. A case is described in which the only symptomatic manifestation of Paget's disease was mandibular prognathism. The pathogenesis, aetiology, and management are discussed.
