Bilateral dentigerous cysts (DC) associated with unerupted mandibular first molars in a non-syndromic pediatric individual are rare. Secondary infections may lead to complications, such as discomfort due to pain, disfigurement caused by enlargement of the cyst with cortical expansion of the jawbone, displacement of teeth and paraesthesia of the adjacent nerve. This case report describes the occurrence of bilateral DC in an eight-year-old patient. Marsupialization was the treatment of choice to preserve the permanent teeth and other adjacent tissues.
双侧含牙囊肿(DC)与非综合征性小儿个体中未萌出的下颌第一磨牙相关的情况罕见。继发感染可能导致并发症,如疼痛引起的不适、囊肿增大伴颌骨皮质扩张导致的面容毁损、牙齿移位以及相邻神经的感觉异常。本病例报告描述了一名8岁患者双侧DC的发生情况。袋形术是保留恒牙和其他相邻组织的首选治疗方法。
