Abstract:
A dentigerous cyst is the most common cause of a pericoronal radiolucency involving an impacted mandibular third molar. Spontaneous regression of such a lucency is reported in a patient who failed to attend for surgical enucleation. Factors promoting bony healing of cysts are discussed with reference to previous case reports.
