    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral Pathology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Periapical radiolucencies can present with various etiologies, necessitating accurate diagnosis.
    • Traumatic bone cysts are uncommon intraosseous jaw lesions, often asymptomatic.

    Observation:

    • An unusual asymptomatic periapical radiolucency was identified around the upper right lateral incisor.
    • Surgical exploration revealed an empty bone cavity consistent with a traumatic bone cyst.

    Findings:

    • The lesion was diagnosed as a traumatic bone cyst based on surgical findings.
    • Radiographic follow-up over six years demonstrated complete spontaneous healing of the bone cavity.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering traumatic bone cysts in the differential diagnosis of periapical radiolucencies.
    • Long-term radiographic monitoring can confirm the benign nature and resolution of these lesions.
