ABSTRACT Dentigerous cyst is the most frequent developmental odontogenic cysts. It forms in relation to unerupted teeth, decidous teeth or supernumerary tooth as seen in our case. It is common in younger individuals in lower jaw involving mostly the third molar region. Here, we report a case of 25 years old female with a large dentigerous cyst of right maxilla who presented with complete unilateral nasal obstruction. Radiologically, a supernumerary tooth was seen located superiorly in the medial wall of the maxillary antrum. The cyst was surgically removed through a gingivobuccal sulcus incision. Although, Weber Fergusson incision is generally required for removal of large cysts, sublabial or Caldwell-Luc approach is equally useful for large cyst removal and is also more cosmetically acceptable.

AbstractSupernumerary teeth in the upper third molar region are relatively common but cases in the lower jaw are rare. In his survey of supernumerary teeth Stafne (1932) saw 131 upper but only 10 lower fourth molars. The following is a report of a single supernumerary tooth in the lower third molar region.

Dentigerous cyst develops around impacted, unerupted or developing teeth. It is often asymptomatic. However, it can be large and cause symptoms related to expansion. Painless swelling is the main symptoms, may be painful if infected. It can be found incidentally on dental radiography. Our patient is a 15 years old girl with painless swelling in right cheek with nasal obstruction. Diagnosis was confirmed by CT scan and needle aspiration. Under general anaesthesia enucleation of the cyst with removal of unerupted teeth was performed by Caldwell- Luc procedure. Post operative period was uneventful.

ABSTRACT A 20-year-old female reported with chief complaint of pain in the left mandibular third molar region. Intraoral examination revealed inflamed area was notice near the retromolar area. Radiological examination showed impacted left third molar with pericoronal radiolucency of about 2.5 mm. Surgically, a very small cystic cavity was noticed surrounding the crown of the impacted third molar. Histopathological examination revealed a small cystic space lined by epithelium of two to three cell layers thick. The final diagnosis of dentigerous cyst was made. Thus, odontogenic lesion may be found in radiographically normal follicular space. How to cite this article Sarode GS, Sarode SC, Patil S. Expect the Exceptional. World J Dent 2014;5(3):196-197.

Dentigerous cysts are one of the most prevalent types of odontogenic cysts and are associated with the crown of an unerupted tooth, especially of the mandibular third molar. In this study, the characteristics of a dentigerous cyst developed around a mandibular third molar on panoramic radiographs were investigated. The panoramic images of 257 consecutive dentigerous cyst cases associated with a mandibular third molar were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 45.9 ± 13.3 years. The size of the cyst did not significantly correlate to the age of the patient. The unilocular type (89.1%) and the crown side type (68.5%) were significant. The associated mandibular third molars had a high frequency of class III (64.6%) and position B (48.3%) in Pell and Gregory classification and of horizontal position (36.3%) in angulation. Dentigerous cysts were thought to originate and grow commonly around deeply impacted third molars. The associated third molar with dentigerous cyst tends to have a mesial inclination. Dentigerous cysts do not appear to develop gradually after the crown formation has finished, but arise at various periods randomly.

Abstract Background Angiosarcoma occurs very rarely in the oral cavity, and the epithelioid type is even rarer. Here, we report a rare case involving an elderly man with a primary epithelioid angiosarcoma that originated from the mandibular gingiva and resembled a dentigerous cyst on radiographs. Case presentation A 66-year-old Japanese man visited our hospital with a chief complaint of gingival swelling in right mandibular third molar region. A panoramic radiograph showed bone resorption around the crown of right mandibular third molar, which was impacted. Incisional biopsy confirmed a diagnosis of epithelioid angiosarcoma. The lesion exhibited aggressive proliferation after biopsy resulting in uncontrolled bleeding and difficulty in closing the mouth. Mandibular segmental resection including the tumor was performed without reconstruction. Because of the aggressive preoperative course of the tumor, the patient received adjuvant chemotherapy. There were no signs of recurrence during a 2-year follow-up period. ConclusionsA review of the literature yielded only four reported cases of epithelioid angiosarcoma in the jaw region, with the lesions occurring in the maxilla in three cases. To our knowledge, this is the second case of primary epithelioid angiosarcoma in the mandible.

The dentigerous cyst is one of the most common Odontogenic cysts involving the jaws, usually associated with the crown of a third molar or unerupted canine being in most unilateral lesions. The impaction of the incisor lateral maxillary permanent associated with dentigerous cyst is a rare entity and even more if it involves continuous dental crowns. Generally, affect between the second and third decade of life, its appearance in the first decade is still rare, representing only 9.1% of cases between 6 and 7 years. The purpose of this article is to describe the presence of impacted teeth associated with a large dentigerous cyst in the right jaw of an eight-year-old child with clinical and histopathological approach. Thorough evaluation of clinical history based on clinical, radiographic, and histopathological findings helps specialists to correctly diagnose and identify the etiological factors that lead to appropriate treatment.
