TI  - An Imaging Perspective to Multiple Calcifying Hyperplastic Dental Follicles - A 
      Report of Three Cases.

LID - 10.4103/ams.ams_130_22 [doi]
AB  - RATIONALE: Multiple Calcifying Hyperplastic Dental Follicle (MCHDF) is an 
      extremely rare condition and is characterised by multiple impacted permanent 
      teeth, with enlarged dental follicles, containing calcifications. Cone-beam 
      computed tomography (CBCT) is the ideal exam for the identification of this 
      condition. PATIENT CONCERNS: The present study seeks to compare the behaviour of 
      MCHDF in imaging exams of three clinical cases with their MCHDF imaging 
      diagnoses, in which a change about tooth eruption was observed. DIAGNOSIS: CBCT 
      proved to be an important diagnostic tool for MCHDF, as it is able to identify 
      these small calcifications, as well as measure the size of the follicle.Treatment 
      Outcomes and Take. AWAY LESSONS: With a consistent imaging diagnosis, less 
      invasive treatments become a viable option for this condition, since functional 
      and aesthetic involvement is common in these patients, who often tend to be quite 
      young.
