CASE REPORT: ACCIDENTAL FINDING OF DENTIGEROUS CYST IN UNERUPTED MAXILLARY INCISOR
Journal Title: Era's Journal of Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Dentigerous cysts form by accumulation of fluid between reduced enamel epithelium and the crown of an unerupted tooth. They cause several difficulties such as swelling, non-eruption of the involved teeth, and displacement of adjacent teeth, and thus require early detection and prompt treatment. Treatment ranges from marsupialisation to enucleation. We report a case of a 20-year-old boy with an impacted central incisor in the maxillary region. The tooth was completely placed in proximity to the nasal floor. Surgical removal of the impacted central incisor was performed under local anesthesia without disturbing the floor of the nose and granulation tissue was sent for hisptopathological diagnosis. Hisptopathological diagnosis reveals dentigerous cyst.
