Abstract

Dentigerous cyst is the most common developmental odontogenic cyst. It can involveany included tooth, although molars and canines are most frequently affected, followedby premolars and incisors. The aim of this article was to report the case of an11-year-old female patient complaining of an eruption delay of a mandibular secondpremolar (45). Therefore, a literature review regarding the diagnosis and treatmentof this condition is presented. At clinical and radiographic examination, the imagesuggested a dentigerous cyst; however, the diagnosis was confirmed by histopathologicaland cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) exams. Surgical planning wascarried out using a conservative method involving surgical decompression. CBCTwas used as a surgical guide. At 4-month clinical and radiographic follow-up, cysticenucleation was performed by curettage. The patient was followed for 3 years untilcomplete eruption and alignment of the teeth occurred. No lesion was recorded,and orthodontic treatment was proven to be successful. The surgical decompressionwas completely safe, avoiding damage in important structures, and resulted in rapidrecovery of the patient.
