Resumo

Odontogenic cysts and tumors are heterogeneous lesions, originating from elements or remnants of the odontogenic apparatus. Although the majority of these lesions are benign and never undergo malignant transformation, rare malignant tumors may arise de novo or from benign precursors. The molecular basis of these lesions is still poorly understood. This article summarizes and discusses studies using small, medium, and large-scale and/or "-omic" techniques to describe the molecular characteristics of benign and malignant odontogenic lesions and briefly debates strategies to increase the use of "-omic" and multi-omic approaches or integrative analyses in the research of these lesions. A comprehensive understanding of the molecular aspects of odontogenic lesions by using large-scale approaches will enable us to refine the classification of this heterogeneous group of disorders and provide more accurate biomarkers for precise diagnosis, prognosis, and development of molecular tools in the management of patients with these conditions.
