Abstract

Burkitt lymphoma is rare Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma type in childhood. The differential diagnosis includes dental infection and osteomyelitis. Therefore, patients often refer to the dentist first. Early diagnosis has great importance on prognosis. We aimed to broaden the perspective of dentists about this disease and confirm the diagnosis radiographically and clinically.
