ABSTRACT

Torus palatinus is a type of benign hyperplasia of the facial skeleton, together with torus mandibularis and bony exostoses. These are mostly of unknown etiology and asymptomatic; in addition, they do not require treatment due to their benignity. Their diagnosis may be incidental and any neoplastic pathologies must be ruled out. We present a case of a patient diagnosed with multilobular torus palatinus.
