Dentigerous Cysts

Dentigerous cysts are also called as follicular cysts. It is the second most common type of odontogenic cyst, which is a fluid-filled sac that develops in the jaw bone and soft tissue. They are slow growing benign and non-inflammatory odontogenic cysts that are thought to be developmental in origin. Dentigerous cysts form over the top of an unerupted tooth, or partially erupted tooth, usually one of your molars or canines. While dentigerous cysts are benign, they can lead to complications, such as infection, if left untreated.

Smaller dentigerous cysts might not cause any symptoms. However, if the cyst grows larger than 2 centimeters in diameter, the symptoms may include swelling, tooth sensitivity and tooth displacement. Treating a dentigerous cyst depends on its size. If it is small, it can be removed surgically along with the affected tooth. In other cases, they might use a technique called marsupialization.
