Radiographically, it appears as multiple small, tooth-like radiopaque structures, unlike complex odontomas, which show as masses of calcified material.

Positive nitrogen balance occurs when the intake of nitrogen (protein) is greater than its excretion, indicating net protein anabolism (building up tissues). This is a normal physiological state during periods of growth, such as childhood, adolescence, and pregnancy, where new tissues are being synthesized. Kwashiorkor and marasmus are forms of malnutrition characterized by negative nitrogen balance (protein catabolism), as is a prolonged fever state.

The sympathetic nervous system primarily uses norepinephrine (also known as noradrenaline) as its neurotransmitter. It is released from the synaptic terminals of postganglionic sympathetic fibers and acts on adrenergic receptors, which are found on various target cells throughout the body. This neurotransmitter is essential for the body's "fight or flight" response, contributing to increased heart rate, dilated pupils, and other physiological changes associated with stress or emergency situations.
