Inflammatory dentigerous cyst in a 3 year old South African black male: A case report
Abstract:
We present here a case of a dentigerous cyst in the anterior maxilla of a 3 year old male. There was associated cortical expansion and facial asymmetry. These cysts are rare at this age and in addition are less common in the maxilla. Management consisted of enucleation under general anaesthetic including removal of the unerupted 11. This report attempts to highlight the importance of prompt diagnosis and referral of children with dentigerous cysts.

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...
