Conservative Management of Dentigerous Cysts Associated With Mixed Dentition : A Retrospective Cohort Study

Copyright © 2023, Alqadi et al..

Objectives The pediatric dentigerous cysts might vary by region and population group. Large cystic lesions are typically treated with marsupialization before enucleation in order to decompress the lesion and reduce its volume; however, in pediatric cystic lesions, conservative marsupialization and decompression can be used to manage the condition without additional enucleation. The current study's objectives were to present a case series of pediatric dentigerous cysts and discuss the conservative management of these cystic lesions associated with mixed dentition. Methods A retrospective cohort analysis of patients diagnosed with cystic lesions between 2016 and 2023 was identified. Data on clinical, radiological, pathological, and odontogenic causes were collected. The marsupialization approach was performed in all cases. Patient demographic information was also examined, and a literature review was carried out to identify comparable cases. Results Sixteen young patients were diagnosed with dentigerous cysts, and this was confirmed by clinical, radiological, and pathological examinations. Females comprised 56.2% of the cases, with the right side predominating (62.5%). Deciduous teeth related to the lesion could be extracted normally in all cases. All associated permanent teeth erupted rapidly after the intervention. Conclusion The marsupialization technique used in the current cases of dentigerous cysts associated with mixed dentition was highly successful, and all permanent impacted teeth erupted without any cystic recurrence.
