What is a odontogenic cyst?
Odontogenic cyst is a membrane bound bag that can be empty or filled with a viscous substance or liquid. The membrane of this type of cyst comes from epithelial cells that produce teeth. There are approximately six different types of these cysts. Nomenclature and descriptions of different types of odontogenic cysts can be very variable. Most of these cysts are treated with surgical removal.
The most common type of odontogenic cyst is periapical or radical cyst. This type of cyst is created when the content of the dead and crumbling tooth escapes into the tissue at the base of the tooth. Lighted tissue stimulates the growth of residual cells of embryonic epithelium and eventually leads to the formation of cyst. The removal of the dead tooth usually brings again the absorption of periapical cysts, but when this does not happen, the cyst must be surgically removed and pathologically reviewed.
Dentigerous cysts are the second most common type of odontogenic cysts. These cysts develop inside the tooth cavity that failed to explode from the rubber. INElmi a similar type of cyst is a keratocyst odontogenic tumor, also known as the primary cyst that is formed when the tissue inside the dental follicle does not develop into the tooth and instead produces a cyst.
When the cyst is formed near the base of the molater, which has only partially exploded from the rubber, it is called a paradeal cyst. Gorlin cysts, also called calcification odontogenic cysts, are usually formed in front of the jaw and are often associated with influenced tooth. Glandular odontogenic cyst is an extremely insulated cyst found in the lower jaw.
All these types of cysts usually occur during a routine annual radiological overview of teeth in the dentist's office. They can also be discovered when the dentist is examined by the reason for the unjustified tooth. Occasodontogenic cyst on the ion causes some mild pain or discomfort that will lead the patient to visit his dentist.
typical treatment of these types of cystsIt is to monitor the growth of the cyst to be certain that it does not move the surrounding teeth. If the size of the cyst threatens the health of the mouth, the cyst should be surgically removed and pathology should be made on the tissue to make sure the diagnosis is correct. In cyst excision, it is important that the entire cystic tissue is removed so that the cyst does not create again. Careful notes about the accurate placement of the cyst should be kept on the patient's record so that the area can be regularly controlled for any signs of cyst growth.
