Calcifications of various structures located in the head and neck region are a relatively common occurrence in the population at large and should also be present on patients seeking dental care. Calcifications are detected on conventional imaging used in dental practice especially panoramic radiography. However many of the structures in the head and neck region are in close proximity to one another which makes localization and identification difficult.It will provide a thorough review of the literature on the etiology, pathogenesis, presentation and significance of common soft tissue calcifications in the head and neck region potentially observed radiographically in dental practice. This will help clinicians with an understanding of the incidence, presentation and significance of common soft tissue calcifications.
