Oral examination revealed slight bony expansion on the buccal side of the mandible. Panoramic roentgenogram revealed a well-defined monocystic radiolucent area from 6 to 6. Electrical vitality test revealed nonresponse for 6+6. The clinical diagnosis was suspected an ameloblastoma. Under local anesthesia, marsupialization was performed considering the extraction of 65|56 with severe mobility, and then partial cystic tissue was removed from the cavity. The histopathological diagnosis was considered primordial cyst and not tumor tissue.
