While it's a tricky term to pronounce, to stay the least, Condensing Osteitis is quite simple when identified to diagnose and treat. Instead of making the bone smaller — condensing osteitis actually produces more bone density, specifically at the base of a tooth's root. This usually crops up due to an infection and chronic inflammation in the dental pulp, or the interior part of your tooth. It’s quite possible that you won’t feel or see any symptoms, but you should still make sure your dentist keeps an eye on it should treatment be necessary.
