The treatment of choice for dentigerous cyst is enucleation along with extraction of the impacted teeth. [21] If eruption of the unerupted tooth is considered feasible, the tooth may be left in place after partial removal of the cyst wall. Orthodontic treatment may subsequently be required to assist eruption.
A cystectomy is the removal of a cyst followed by mucosa and wound closure to reduce chances of cyst regeneration. This type of treatment is more ideal for small cysts. [citation needed] A cystostomy is recommended for larger cysts that compromise important adjacent anatomy. The cyst is tamponaded to allow for the cyst contents to escape the ...

The commonest cyst arising from lateral wall is the nasopharyngeal branchial cyst, whereas the mucus retention cysts are the commonest to arise from the midline. [1] Sometimes nasopharyngeal cyst may directly refer to Tornwaldt cyst. [2]

Ostectomy or En – bloc resection: in addition to the above treatments, these may be required due to the issue of recurrence. Ostectomy is removal of peripheral bone. En – block resection is removal of the cyst with the surrounding tissue. Extensive cysts may require a bone graft after bone resection and reconstruction of the area.
Cysts treatment is limited to surgical removal for the majority of cysts. There are two techniques used to manage cysts with the deciding factor being the size of the cyst. [8] Enucleation—removal of the entire cyst. A mucoperiosteal flap is raised overlying the cyst and the entire cyst subsequently removed.
A sebaceous cyst is a term commonly used to refer to either: [1] Epidermoid cysts (also termed epidermal cysts, infundibular cyst) Pilar cysts (also termed trichelemmal cysts, isthmus-catagen cysts) Both of the above types of cysts contain keratin, not sebum, and neither originates from sebaceous glands.
