Description

A rare case of multi-follicular dental cysts in a 21-year-old woman was reported. She had four follicular cysts at the bilateral maxillary and mandibular regions. Roentgenographic examination revealed that they were related to four unerupted teeth of maxillary and mandibular third molars. Both maxillary cysts were surgically removed because of painful swelling of the cheeks. The follicular cyst at the left mandibular ramus then became infected, probably due to decreased vital resistance on account of pregnancy. As she suffered a marked trismus, the left mandibular cyst was removed in the fifth month of pregnancy.<br>Close following up of follicular dental cysts seems necessary even if they produce no symptoms.
