Conservative treatment of dentigerous cysts in children: A case report

Bu vaka raporunun amacı; karışık dişlenme dönemindeki bir çocuk hastada dentigeröz kist tedavisini sunmaktadır. Sağ maksiller kanin diş ile ilişkili dentigeröz kisti olan 9 yaşındaki kız hasta kliniğimize başvurmuştur. Lokal anestezi altında kist marsupyalize edildi ve postoperatif dönemde obturator uygulandı. Marsupyalizasyondan 4 ay sonra, radyolüsent alan kayboldu ve yeni kemik oluşumu görüldü. Kanin dişin erupsiyonu için ortodontik tedaviye karar verilerek hasta Ortodonti Bölümü’ne sevk edildi. Marsupyalizasyon, özellikle çocuklarda dentigeröz kist ile ilişkili gömülü dişlerin erupsiyonuna imkan tanıdığı için en iyi tedavi seçeneklerinden biridir.

Çocuklarda dentigeröz kistin konservatif tedavisi: Bir vaka raporu

The aim of this case report was to present management of dentigerous cysts in a child with mixed dentition. A 9-year-old girl was referred to clinic with a dentigerous cyst associated with maxillary right canine. The patient had a painless expansion of the alveolus around the canine. Under local anesthesia, the cyst was marsupialized and the obturator was applied postoperatively. Four months after marsupialization, the radiolucent area had disappeared and repaired by new bone. Orthodontic traction was decided for eruption of canine then the patient was referred to the clinic of orthodontics. Marsupialization is one of the best way to give a eruption chance to impacted tooth associated with dentigerous cyst especially in childhood.
