Incidental Finding of a Large Dentigerous Cyst Associated with an Impacted Mandibular Canine
Abstract
Dentigerous cysts (DCs) are developmental odontogenic cysts associated with impacted teeth. DCs are generally asymptomatic and the majority of the cases are fortuitously detected on conventional imaging techniques used in dental practice such as panoramic radiographs. This "clinical image" presents a large DC associated with an impacted mandibular canine.
