Abstract:
This case report details the interdisciplinary management of a large dentigerous cyst located in the left maxillary region of a 16-year-old male patient. Marsupialization performed by the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department created a surgical defect, which was successfully rehabilitated using an acrylic plug-type interim obturator fabricated by the Department of Prosthodontics. Sequential clinical and laboratory images demonstrate the treatment phases. This case underscores the importance of surgical-prosthodontic collaboration in restoring function, esthetics, and hygiene in maxillofacial cystic lesions.
