Introduction: Odontogenic lesions related to impacted teeth are common findings in routine
dental exams, with the potential to cause tooth pain, displacement, bone expansion, or even bone
erosion. Thus, their early detection is important. This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of such
lesions based on patient age, gender, and location at the Tehran University of Medical Sciences,
School of Dentistry, over five years.
Materials and Methods: This retrospective study evaluated records from the oral pathology
department, covering a five-year period. The association of odontogenic lesions with impacted
teeth was assessed. Data on lesion type, patient age and gender, involved jaw, lesion location, and affected
teeth were extracted from patient records. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 24.
Results: Out of 815 odontogenic lesions, 44.4% were associated with impacted teeth. The patient
distribution was 52.48% male and 47.52% female. Lesions were most prevalent in the third decade
of life (24.58%), and third molars (59.39%) were frequently involved. The posterior mandible
(68.5%) and mandibular third molar (55%) were common sites. Dentigerous cysts had the highest
frequency (35.4%), with odontogenic cysts (developmental) occurring more frequently (70.7%)
than odontogenic tumors.
Conclusion: The study underscores a significant association between odontogenic lesions and
impacted or unerupted teeth. Periodic follow-ups are crucial for retaining impacted teeth based
on these findings.
Keywords: Tooth; Impacted; Odontogenic cysts; Odontogenic tumors; Jaw; Pathology; Oral.
