Abstract
The most common modality of treatment for completely edentulous patients are conventional removable complete dentures. The protocol for fabrication of complete denture would involve a thorough clinical examination and radiographic investigation. As a routine, unless clinical findings suggest presence of remnant tooth structures, or the patient presents himself with symptoms, the radiographic investigations are overlooked. This case report presents one such situation wherein routine radiographic evaluation of a clinically asymptomatic edentulous individual prior to prosthetic rehabilitation revealed the presence of an odontogenic keratocyst of anterior maxilla substantiating the importance of such routine pre-prosthetic radiographic investigations.
