Abstract | Inflammatory dentigerous cysts are only found in the mixed dentition. The four cases presented here illustrate the uncomplicated behavior of these cysts when properly treatad. By extracting the infected primary teeth, opening the cyst and ensuring continuous drainage, it is possible to achieve spontaneous eruption of the involved permanent teeth into the dental arch even if they are badly dislocated. Simultaneous with the eruption of the permanent teeth, ossification of the bony defect can take place. The reparatory process is completed in one to two years. | |
