| description | Dentigerous cysts are the most common
developmental odontogenic cyst of the jaws. They
are more frequent in males and although most
often affected teeth are maxillary canines and
mandibular third molars, they may also be related
with supernumerary or an ectopically erupted tooth.
Our aim was to report the management of ectopic
third molar tooth related with a dentigerous cyst
in maxillary sinus. 16 years old girl referred to our
clinic with a complaint of painful swelling over her
right cheek since past six months. All permanent
teeth were present except the right upper third molar.
External examination showed that the face was gently
asymmetrical; levels of eye globes were abnormal.
Radiographic examination revealed a cystic lesion
related with ectopic third molar which located in the
roof of the left maxillary sinus. Under local anesthesia,
hard drain was inserted into the hole and the cystic
pressure was decreased. After the six month of followup,
the operation was performed under general
anesthesia. The patient’s symptoms were resolved
completely after surgery and remained symptom-free
for over a postoperative follow-up period of 3 year.
To avoid unwanted effects of a dentigerous
cyst, unerupted tooth should be observed
with radiographic imaging. Some untreated
dentigerous cysts may grow large and have a
potential to develop into an odontogenic tumor. |
