Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Oral Pathology
  • Pediatric Dentistry

Background:

  • Dentigerous cysts typically develop around unerupted permanent teeth.
  • Cysts associated with deciduous teeth are uncommon, making this case noteworthy.

Observation:

  • A 2-year-old boy presented with a dentigerous cyst.
  • Radiographic imaging showed a well-defined radiolucency in the right maxilla.
  • The cyst was linked to the crown of a maxillary second deciduous molar.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination revealed the cyst lining was nonkeratinized squamous epithelium.
  • Odontogenic epithelial islands were identified within the subepithelial connective tissue.

Implications:

  • This case expands the understanding of dentigerous cyst occurrence in primary dentition.
  • Early detection and management are crucial for pediatric oral health.
  • Further research into the etiology of deciduous tooth-associated cysts is warranted.
