Use of 3D printed model as an aid in surgical removal of dentigerous cyst in the left medio-lateral aspect of mandible associated with an impacted canine – A case report
Abstract:Dentigerous cyst is the second most common developmental odontogenic cyst affecting 0.91-7.3% of population and always associated with an impacted tooth. They are commonly found associated with the lower third molars followed by the upper canines, lower premolars, and upper third molars. 1 The current treatment protocol for treatment is surgical enucleation or marsupialization followed by surgical enucleation with extraction of an associated tooth. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an industrial revolution, i… Show more
