abstract: Thrombi formed in blood vessels, although typically experiencing normal blood flow, may undergo mineral deposition, resulting in the formation of phleboliths. When affecting the oral region, they can lead to facial asymmetry due to volume increase, imparting a bluish appearance to the mucosa. Despite phlebolith diagnosis often being incidental, distinguishing them from other calcifications becomes imperative. This article presents two pertinent clinical cases: the first associated with a traumatic event clinically diagnosed as a probable sialolith, and the second case, initially identified as a phlebolith, showed no association with vascular pathology. These cases underscore the importance of considering the presence of phleboliths in the differential diagnosis of vascular lesions and other calcifications in the oral region. Furthermore, it highlights the necessity for a meticulous approach and detailed assessment to determine the origin and nature of calcifications in the oral mucosa to ensure appropriate treatment and mitigate potential complications.
