Dentigerous Cyst Associated with Ectopic Supernumerary Canine in the Maxillary Sinus

Association of ectopic supernumerary tooth in the maxillary sinus with dentigerous cyst is quite uncommon. The cause is unknown in most of the cases but developmental disturbance, pathologic processes or iatrogenic factors have been implicated. Most are symptomless and usually take an insidious course. Those with symptoms will mimic rhinosinusitis. The ectopic tooth can be found incidentally on routine plain radiographs of the paranasal sinuses, skull or panoramic radiographs. We present the case of a patient of large dentigerous cyst associated with an ectopic supernumerary tooth in the right maxillary sinus.

EN TOTO REMOVAL OF A LARGE DENTIGEROUS CYST: A CASE REPORT

Dentigerous cyst is most common odontogenic cyst after radicular cyst.Dentigerous cyst associated with crown of impacted tooth or developing teeth.Generally dentigerous cysts are treated by enucleation .If cyst is large treated by marsupialization followed by enucleation to prevent pathological fracture. In present case we have removed large dentigerous cyst en-toto under local anaesthesia.

Expansile dentigerous cyst invading the entire maxillary sinus: a case report

J Korean Assoc Oral Maxillofac Surg 2012;38:245-8) Reported cases of a large dentigerous cyst involving the whole maxillary sinus are uncommon. A 22-year-old female patient suffering from swelling of the right infraorbital area and cheek with dull pain was referred to our department. Findings on computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a huge mass containing a displaced maxillary third molar involving the right maxillary sinus as a whole, with partial erosion of the posterior sinus cortical bone. Under general anesthesia, the mass was enucleated using the Caldwell-Luc approach, and, following histopathological analysis, was diagnosed as a dentigerous cyst. The case was followed for a period of seven years, and no evidence of sinus infection or recurring cyst formation was observed during that time. 1 .�Cysticdevelopentis� usuallyrelatedtouneruptedthirdmolarormaxillarycanine,� andithasthetendencyofdisplacingtherelatedtooth.�A� cystformedaroundthemaxillarythirdmolarmayinvade� themaxillarysinus,�growingunnoticedtosuchextensive� sizeastooccupyaconsiderableportionofthemaxillary� sinus.�Asthecystgrows,�thebonywallsoverlyingthecyst� thinout,�givingrisetoaneggshellsensationuponpalpation� andpossiblytransmittingpressuretothewallsofthesinus;� thuscausingophthalmologicandnasalsymptomstodevelop 2 .� Someuntreateddentigerouscystsmay-inrarecases-grow�

Decompression, Enucleation, and Implant Placement in the Management of a Large Dentigerous Cyst

The dentigerous cyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst, accounting for 10% of all cysts of the jaws. The treatment options are decompression, marsupialization, or enucleation regarding the features of the lesions. In this article, a case of a 17-year-old adolescent girl having a large mandibular dentigerous cyst associated with an unerupted third molar is presented. The treatment is composed of decompression for 6 months and enucleation. Decompression and enucleation are a predictable choice in the treatment of large cysts. Radiologic evaluation is mandatory to decide for the appropriate time for the removal of the decompression stents, the enucleation time, and also for the evaluation of the adequate new bone formation for implant placement. The present case emphasizes the success of a conservative approach in the management of a large dentigerous cyst in a young patient and also the maintenance of the new bone formation without using any graft materials for the placement of dental implants.

Treatment of large dentigerous cysts in children

To present a series of clinical cases of children treated for large dentigerous cysts with a conservative and tissue preserving surgical approach. A follow-up study of 11 children aged 5-11 years old treated for large dentigerous cysts with decompression. The children were followed from the first appointment when the cysts were diagnosed until the full eruption of the involved and displaced teeth. The treatment procedure is described step by step. Three of the 11 cases are presented in detail. All permanent teeth displaced by the dentigerous cysts, except a wisdom tooth and a maxillary canine, erupted in a correct position and in good occlusion. No facial disfigurations or defects of oral tissues occurred. A decompression approach, as described in this paper, is rewarding for the patient and the surgeon. It would be unethical and destructive to the maxillofacial bone structure not to treat large dentigerous cysts in children by decompression.

Conservative management of a dentigerous cyst associated with an impacted mandibular second premolar in mixed.

Dentigerous cysts, commonly encountered in the practice of dentistry, are benign odontogenic cysts associated with crowns of unerupted and/or impacted permanent teeth. They frequently occur during the second and third decades of life. Treat-ment modalities range from enucleation to marsupialization, which may be influenced by the age of the patient, severity of impaction, and root form of associated tooth/teeth. The purpose of this report is to describe the successful outcome of con-servative surgical management of a large dentigerous cyst associated with an impacted mandibular second premolar in a young patient.

Dentigerous cyst of mandible with multiple complex odontomes

Odontomas are non-aggressive, hamartomatous developmental malformations or lesions of odontogenic origin which consist of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulpal tissue (hence, they are also called composite i.e. consisting of multiple or more than one type of tissue) and constitute 22% of all odontogenic tumors [1]. Two types of odontomas are recognized – compound and complex. Compound odontomas consist of encapsulated, discrete, small tooth-like structures or denticles in a fibrous connective tissue stroma. Complex odontomas on the other hand, consist of an irregular mixture or mass of mature hard and soft dental tissues which are poorly differentiated as enamel, dentin or cementum and hence have no resemblance to teeth [2]. The etiology of odontomas is unknown but genetic factors and environmental causes such as trauma and infection have been proposed. Most odontomas are discovered during the first two decades of life and there is no significant gender predilection. They often remain asymptomatic and undiscovered until revealed by routine radiography where they characteristically appear as dense, radiopaque masses [3]. Sometimes clinical indicators of their presence may include bone expansion, pain and tooth displacement or unerupted normal teeth. Enucleation is curative and recurrence is not a problem. We report a rare case of multiple complex odontomas in a 58 year old man, associated with a large dentigerous cyst of the anterior mandible, which was managed surgically. The unusual site of occurrence, age and manner of presentation and its association with a dentigerous cyst makes it interesting.

Orthodontic assisted tooth eruption in a dentigerous cyst: a case report

In an orthodontic practice, it is common to deal with impacted teeth, which are one of the most difficult situations dealt with by dentists. This case report describes the surgical and orthodontic management of the impacted teeth in a large dentigerous cyst. In the initial stage of treatment, the cyst was marsupialized over 7 months. After decompression of the cyst, spontaneous eruptions of the impacted tooth were noticed. Then, they were orthodontically brought into the proper occlusion.

USING FENESTRATION TECHNIQUE TO TREAT A LARGE DENTIGEROUS CYST

Dentigerous cysts are commonly encountered in the practice of dentistry and oral and maxillofacial surgery. Treatment modalities range from enucleation to marsupialization, and are based on the premise that the pathological process can be controlled locally with minimal injury to the adjacent host structures. In a child, however, loss of permanent tooth buds in the management of a large dentigerous cyst can be devastating. This article describes the technique of fenestration, which removes this entity and preserves the developing dentition.

Correction of a superiorly displaced impacted canine due to a large dentigerous cyst

One of the more difficult situations dealt with by orthodontists is the treatment of impacted maxillary canines. This case report describes an impacted canine positioned near the floor of the orbit that was brought into a normal position. Diagnostic records revealed impacted and displaced teeth resulting from a large radiolucent lesion. The patient was referred to an oral surgeon. The lesion was diagnosed as a dentigerous cyst and marsupialized over 12 months. After decompression of the cyst, the impacted teeth were exposed and orthodontically brought into their proper position.
