Dr K. Sahithi Srivalli, Dr R. Bhanu Murthy

Abstract :

Dentigerous cyst (DC) is the second most common type of odontogenic cyst. It is thought to have a de¬velopmental origin, arising from an anomaly in the reduced dental epithelium. Rarely seen in early child¬hood, DC is mostly prevalent among people aged be¬tween 20 and 40. The most common location of DC is the mandibular third molar, more rarely occurring in the maxillary sinus. Enucleation is the standard treat¬ment. Herein, we report a 14–year–old boy with DC that developed into the right maxillary sinus, measuring 5.7×4.2 cm.
