“…In addition to providing basic information about the presence and position of unerupted teeth, OPG can be used as a screening method for the indication of asymptomatic hard tissue anomalies [9]. Crucial in OPG interpretation are the size of the lesion, its relation to anatomical structures, its internal complexity and the appearance of its borders [6,10]. The margins of the lesion are important in preliminary diagnosis and serve as a prognostic factor.…”

“…Well-defined peripheries, which can be sclerotic or noncorticated, usually suggest the benign nature of a lesion. Nondefined margins can be diffused or invasive, which raises the suspicion of malignancy [6,10]. According to a radiographic study conducted by Langaroodi et al [11], a nonaggressive odontogenic cyst and tumors are mostly single focal with visible borders and show a radiolucent image.…”

“…These three things are important points in diagnosing dentigerous cysts on radiographic examination. 27 The use of CBCT is considered effective in radiographic examination in this case of dentigerous cysts if carried out with the right procedure. If there are operator actions outside the established procedure, it will certainly pose a risk to the quality of the resulting radiographic image.…”

“…Kelemahan lainnya adalah modalitas dua dimensi tidak dapat mengidentifikasi dengan tepat suatu lesi sehingga rencana perawatan dapat menjadi tidak tepat pula. 5,10 Gambaran panoramik pada kasus ini tidak dapat memperlihatkan karekteristik spesifik dari kista dentigerus dan juga perluasan lesi yang sulit untuk diidentifikasi sehingga dibutuhkan pemeriksaan dengan modalitas CBCT.…”
