The term residual cyst is used most often for retained radicular cyst from teeth that has been removed. Residual cysts are among most common cysts of the jaws. The location of all odontogenic cysts is usually intraosseous. The peripheral (extraosseous) presentations are rare. The peripheral presentation of residual cyst has never been reported in the literature. In this article, the role of CT ...

Odontogenic cysts are pathological cavities enclosed by fibrous connective tissue and lined with epithelial that develops from odontogenic tissues in the maxilla mandible's tooth-bearing regions. Trauma or tooth caries is main cause of radicular periapical cysts. Pulp necrosis outcome dental irritating pulp cavity. Once infection has reached root's tip, it causes periodontitis, which may lead t...

Dentigerous cyst is the most commonly occurring odontogenic cyst after radicular cyst and accounts for 15% of all true cysts in the jaws. The cyst is more common in mandible than in maxilla. The dentigerous cyst is commonly associated with impacted mandibular third molars. In maxilla, the incidence is rare. Dentigerous cyst in maxillary sinus in association with an impacted third molar is an un...

Dentigerous Cyst/developmental cyst of benign odontogenic origin are ones that surround the crown of impacted, embedded, unerupted or developing teeth. Dentigerous cyst is second most common cyst of the oral cavity after radicular cyst. They are usually solitary in occurrence and mostly associated with the mandibular third molars. Dentigerous cysts involving impacted second premolars are rarely...

Radicular cysts are by far the most common cystic lesions of the jaw. However, those arising from primary teeth are comparatively rare, comprising only 0.5 to 3.3%. The aim of this paper is to present clinical, radiographic and histopathological characteristics of radicular cyst associated with a primary mandibular molar causing unusual displacement of the permanent successor. Extraction of pri...

central giant cell granulomas (cgcgs) may manifest as radiolucencies anywhere in the mandible or maxilla. in rare cases, it can appear as a localized periradicular area and mimic an endodontic lesion. this case report presents an uncommon location of cgcg which was not accurately diagnosed nor timely treated. periodic follow ups of periapical radiolucencies after rct are necessary. dentists sho...

this case report describes the endodontic treatment of a large cyst-like periradicular lesion a 29-year-old female with a large chronic periapical abscess in the region of right maxillary sinus presented into private practice, accompanied with non-vital first upper molar and poorly root treated second upper molar. conservative root canal treatment was carried out for both of the involved teeth ...
