Abstract

This article presents a clinical case of the treatment of a mandibular radicular cyst from 3.6 teeth by creating a decompression "window", which allows the cyst volume to be reduced up to complete restoration of the bone structure as well as ensuring the integrity of the surrounding anatomical structures. The subsequent filling of the cavity with newly formed bone is due to secondary osteogenesis. This operation can be performed on an outpatient basis in a dental surgery room under local anesthesia

Highlights

  • To date, one of the most pressing problems of modern maxillofacial surgery is the treatment of human jaw cysts a traumatically and with preservation of the integrity of the dentition

  • Radicular cysts account for 94-96% of odontogenic cysts of the jaws detected in adults

  • The findings revealed a nidus of bone destruction in the lateral region of the lower jaw in the region of 3.6, 3.7, 3.8 (Fig. 1, 2)

Summary

Introduction

One of the most pressing problems of modern maxillofacial surgery is the treatment of human jaw cysts a traumatically and with preservation of the integrity of the dentition. The significance of this topic is determined by its frequency, prevalence among children, adolescents and young adults. Radicular cysts account for 94-96% of odontogenic cysts of the jaws detected in adults. Despite modern conservative methods of treatment, the need for surgical treatment of odontogenic cysts has not decreased. The main surgical method for the treatment of odontogenic cysts of the jaw is cystectomy, and less frequently, cystotomy
