Conclusion
The followings are the noteworthly points of this study;
-
1.
Central squamous cell carcinomas of the mandible were classified into three types, such as cystic, infiltrative and rarefying according to their radiographic features.
-
2.
In the cystic type, the intervals from clinical onset to the first visit were longer than that of the other types.
-
3.
The cystic type had better prognosis than the other types.
