Dentigerous cysts are benign odontogenic cysts that develop from the reduced enamel epithelium related to the crown of an unerupted and/or impacted tooth. Inflammatory dentigerous cyst is a variety of dentigerous cyst that is mostly found in the mixed dentition, and the treatment modalities range from enucleation to marsupialization. By extracting the infected primary teeth, opening the cyst, and ensuring continuous drainage, spontaneous eruption of the involved permanent teeth occurs into the dental arch even if they are severely dislocated. The purpose of this report is to describe the successful treatment of a large dentigerous cyst by conservative surgical management.
含牙囊肿是一种良性牙源性囊肿，由与未萌出和/或阻生牙冠相关的缩余釉上皮发展而来。炎性含牙囊肿是含牙囊肿的一种类型，多见于混合牙列期，治疗方式从囊肿摘除术到袋形缝合术不等。通过拔除感染的乳牙、打开囊肿并确保持续引流，即使受累恒牙严重移位，也可自行萌出至牙弓。本报告的目的是描述通过保守手术治疗成功治愈一例大型含牙囊肿的病例。
