The dentigerous cyst is one of the most common developmental odontogenic cysts in the jaw. Occurrence of the bilateral dentigerous cyst is uncommon, and frequently associated with syndromes like basal cell nevus syndrome or cleidocranial dysplasia. There are few reports on the presence of bilateral dentigerous cyst in nonsyndromic patients, and most of these are associated with first and third molars. The reported case in this paper is bilateral dentigerous cysts associated with mandibular permanent second premolars, in the absence of any signs of syndrome. To our knowledge bilateral dentigerous cysts in these locations have not been previously reported.

Dentigerous Cyst of Inflammatory Origin

A dentigerous cyst encloses a crown of an unerupted tooth by its follicle and is attached to the neck of the tooth. They may be of developmental or inflammatory origin. Dentigerous cyst of inflammatory origin occurs in immature tooth as a result of inflammation from preceding non-vital deciduous tooth or from other source spreading to involve the tooth follicle. These are diagnosed in the first and early part of second decade either on routine radiographic examination or when patient complains of swelling and pain. They generally involve mandibular premolars.This article presents a case report of an 11-year-old male patient with a dentigerous cyst of inflammatory origin in the left mandibular premolar region with radiographic feature of a large unilocular radiolucency involving unerupted second premolar. The treatment rendered in this patient comprised of surgical enucleation of cyst under local anesthesia along with extraction of mandibular first and second primary molars.

“…According to a systematic review of 2013 that includes 26 scientific journals from 1993 to 2011 with 18297 odontogenic cysts reported, radicular cysts represent the 54.6% of odontogenic cysts of the mandible, while dentigerous appears in the 20.6%. 27 They derive from epithelial residues of the enamel organ that is stimulated by a periapical infectious process from pulp or a non-vital tooth.…”

Aim:The aim of the article is to describe an unusual case of a non-syndromic patient affected by three follicular cysts in the mandible and then by an inflammatory cyst. Furthermore, we describe two different surgical approaches that we have used to manage this case: marsupialization and enucleation.Background: Dentigerous cysts are usually solitary cyst, the presence of multiple cysts is often combined with systemic diseases such as mucopolysaccharidosis, cleidocranial dysplasia, and basal cell nevus syndrome. They are the second cysts in order of frequency. Because of the lack of symptoms, their diagnosis is frequently radiological, and it can be suspected by the failure of tooth eruption.Case description: Two bilateral cysts of the third lower molars and radicular cyst of the right second lower molar were treated. An excisional therapy for the two dentigerous neoformations was performed. While, as a function of the remarkable dimensions which characterized the lesion, a conservative approach by marsupialization for 8 months before, and excision after, were chosen to solve the radicular inflammatory cyst. To preserve the patency of the cystic cavity, an acrylic obturator was used. Conclusion:In the case of multiple dentigerous cysts, a deepen clinical and systematic examination should be done to rule out any associated syndrome. Nowadays in literature, there is not a single and significant orientation based on the results obtained from the various techniques, but this case report shows that it is possible to achieve the expected therapeutic success even if in the same patient. Clinical significance:The case that we have described allows us to observe how a correct study of the lesions allows us to have a more accurate, safe and predictable therapeutic approach that lasts in time.
