Condensing osteitis, also known as focal sclerosing osteomyelitis, is a rare periapical inflammatory condition characterized by the formation of sclerotic bone near the roots of premolars and molars.

[4][6] Diagnosis typically involves a clinical examination by a dentist or endodontist, complemented by imaging studies such as cone-beam computed tomography.

These studies indicate that prevalence may be related to cultural, dietary, or even genetic factors, thus constituting a background for conducting research in different population groups.

[11] Case reports, such as the documentation of a female patient aged 35 years with condensing osteitis, further support that there is variability in clinical presentation and outcome.

These cases serve to further the understanding not only of the condition itself but also the deficits in both diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, underlining the need for individual treatment strategies, as well as follow-up over a long period of time regarding changes in bone after intervention.

Clinical practices may also be greatly improved by investigating the place of advanced imaging technologies, such as cone-beam computed tomography, in enhancing diagnostic accuracy and monitoring treatment outcomes.

Condensing osteitis will be more clearly understood when epidemiological data is combined with clinical case studies and molecular research to enhance patient care and outcomes by both dental and medical specialties.
