Management of external pressure resorption associated with dentigerous cyst: A case report
Keywords:
External pressure resorption, External root resorption, Dentigerous cyst, Endodontic treatmentAbstract
Pressure from cysts or tumors exerted on neighboring teeth may cause external surface resorption. Surgical removal of a cyst can compromise the vitality of the teeth by severing the nerve and blood supplies at the apices of the roots. In this case, a 60-year-old female presented with dull pain at the base of her nose and mobility of her anterior teeth. Teeth 11 and 21 were found to be associated with a dentigerous cyst of the embedded tooth (mesiodens) in the area. Tooth 21 exhibited clinical symptoms and a negative response to sensibility tests after the removal of embedded tooth and enucleation of the cyst, necessitating endodontic intervention. In contrast, the sensibility tests of tooth 11 recovered approximately two months after the surgical procedure. A follow-up appointment for sensibility testing and evaluation of clinical symptoms is suggested to determine the necessity of endodontic intervention for the tooth related to the temporary loss of sensibility resulting from the surgical procedures.
