Dentigerous cysts are common odontogenic
lesions that require accurate diagnosis for effective management. Traditional
diagnostic methods rely on histopathology, but radiographic evaluation can
provide valuable insights.
Objectives: To present a case series of dentigerous cysts diagnosed solely based
on radiographic features using conventional radiography and CBCT, highlighting
the diagnostic efficacy of imaging modalities.
Methods:
Retrospective analysis of 2 cases of dentigerous cysts diagnosed
radiographically. Inclusion criteria: lesions diagnosed using conventional
radiography and CBCT, without histopathological confirmation. Radiographic
features evaluated: cyst location, size, shape, border definition, and
relationship to adjacent structures.
Results:
2 cases of dentigerous cysts were identified, with characteristic radiographic
features: like well-defined unilocular radiolucency, corticated border,
association with impacted tooth.
