ABSTRACT

Odontogenic cysts comprise most of the cystic lesions of the maxillofacial region. In our daily practice it may be the most common pathology we face. In many cases, the diagnosis of these lesions occurs randomly during routine checks or as a result of secondary inflammation overlapping in these pathologies. Sometimes, when diagnosed late these lesions appear with enlarged proportions with a wide spread of tissue, even replacing bone tissue and exacerbating their prognosis, which however remains positive but with a tendency of recurrence especially when these pathologies are of a great magnitude.
