Abstract
Aims and Objectives The present study aims at evaluation of age sex and site of occurrence related prevalence of Radicular cyst Dentigerous cyst Odontogenic keratocyst OKC Lateral Periodontal cyst Residual cyst Adult Gingival cyst Calcifying odontogenic cystsMaterials and Methods During 8 year period From 2010 to 2017 1000 patients with cystic lesions of the jaws were analysed All patients underwent clinical examination and plain film radiography panoramic periapical and occlusal views Some of them were referred for CBCT or computed tomography CT with a multiplanar reconstruction program MPR Age sex type of cyst and location were recorded in designed performa The treatment modalities used for the management of cysts are marsupialization enucleation enucleation with bone grafting or resection under local or general anaesthesia depending on the caseResults Radicular cyst452 is most common cyst followed by dentigerous cyst232Odontogenic keratocyst 134 lateral periodontal cyst89 residual cyst45Calcifying odontogenic cyst 44 followed by the least common occurring adult gingival cyst 11 The mandibular posterior region 413 is most predilected site of occurrence of cysts in orofacial region however maxillary anterior region 177 is least predilected site of occurrenceConclusion The radicular cyst is most common cyst of oral cavity while adult gingival cyst is least common cystKeywords Cyst Jaw bone Prevalence Odontogenic Nonodontogenic
