Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

The radicular cyst is the most common inflammatory odontogenic cystic lesion of the jaws. The reported frequency varies from 7% to 54% of periapical radiolucencies. It usually originates as a sequel to a periapical inflammatory process, following chemical, physical or bacterial injury. Due to its chronic etiology, the cyst usually appears towards the later stage of life. The incidence of radicular cysts is greater in the third to sixth decades and shows a slight male predominance. Radicular cyst is the most common odontogenic cyst of the Jaws and is accidentally discovered on routine radiographic examination. This article reports a case of a radicular cyst in the mandible, its management and differential diagnosis.
