The dentigerous cyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst, which apparently develops by accumulation of fluid between reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crown of an unerupted tooth. It is one of the most prevalent types of odontogenic cysts associated with erupted, developing, or impacted tooth, particularly the mandibular third molars, the other teeth that are commonly affected are maxillary canines. The present case report is unique as it enclosed three permanent maxillary teeth: the central incisor, lateral incisor, and canine that had to be extracted during surgical enucleation of the cyst.
含牙囊肿是一种发育性牙源性囊肿,它显然是由于釉质上皮与未萌出牙的牙冠之间积液而形成的。它是与已萌出、发育中或阻生牙相关的最常见的牙源性囊肿类型之一,尤其是下颌第三磨牙,其他常受影响的牙齿是上颌尖牙。本病例报告很独特,因为囊肿手术摘除过程中不得不拔除三颗上颌恒牙:中切牙、侧切牙和尖牙。
