Ch 15 Odontogenic cysts and tumors Flashcards
(42 cards)
1
Q
which odontogenic tumor contains no calcified structures and therefore is always radiolucent
A
ameloblastoma
2
Q
- develops from separation of follicle around a crown
- usually develop before 35
- well defined around the crown of impacted tooth
- usually asymptomatic/non-inflammatory
- histo: SSE without inflammation
A
dentigerous cyst
- txt: curettage of cyst with or without extraction of impacted tooth
- large DC may be txt by marsupialization (creating a window)/decompression
3
Q
- soft tissue analogue of dentigerous cyst
- separation of the dental follicle around the crown of a developing tooth
- within the soft tissue overlying alveolar bone
- usually in children younger than 10
- can come from surface trauma (eruption hematoma)
A
eruption cyst
