Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 11
Abstract
Dentigerous cyst originates through alterations of the reduced enamel epithelium in an unerupted tooth after the full formation of crown.The most common type of developmental odontogenic cysts are the dentigerous cysts, arising from the crowns of impacted or unerupted teeth.Rarely, dentigerous cyst develops in an immature permanent tooth in the first decade of life.About 20% of all epithelium -lined cysts of the jaws are the dentigerous cysts.Females are less commonly affected by dentigerous cysts.Mandibular third molar and maxillary canines are most often involved.The greatest incidence can be seen in second and third decade of life but it can occur at any age of life.Occurence of dentigerous cysts in the maxilla is about 30% and in the mandible is about 70%.An ovoid well-demarcated unilocular radiolucency with sclerotic border is the radiographic appearance of dentigerous cyst.In this report, a case of 8 years old female patient affected by dentigerous cyst and it’s management is presented.
