  2. Periapical cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periapical_cyst

    Dental cysts are usually caused due to root infection involving tooth decay. Untreated dental caries then allow bacteria to reach the level of the pulp, causing infection. The bacteria gains access to the periapical region of the tooth through deeper infection of the pulp, traveling through the roots.

  3. Gingival cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gingival_cyst

    Gingival cyst, also known as Epstein's pearl, is a type of cysts of the jaws that originates from the dental lamina and is found in the mouth parts. It is a superficial cyst in the alveolar mucosa.

  4. Median alveolar cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_alveolar_cyst

    The median alveolar cyst is a rare cyst, occurring in the bony alveolus between the maxillary central incisors. It is distinguished from a periapical cyst by the fact that adjacent teeth are vital. It is distinguished from a periapical cyst by the fact that adjacent teeth are vital.

  5. Cysts of the jaws - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cysts_of_the_jaws

    The high prevalence of tooth impactions and dental infections that occur in the bones of the jaws is also significant to explain why cysts are more common at these sites. Cysts that arise from tissue(s) that would normally develop into teeth are referred to as odontogenic cysts. Other cysts of the jaws are termed non-odontogenic cysts. [2]

  6. Dental abscess - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_abscess

    A dental abscess is a localized collection of pus associated with a tooth. The most common type of dental abscess is a periapical abscess, and the second most common is a periodontal abscess. In a periapical abscess, usually the origin is a bacterial infection that has accumulated in the soft, often dead, pulp of the tooth.

  7. Odontogenic keratocyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odontogenic_keratocyst

    Recurrence is likely when treated by simple enucleation. Contributing causes include thin and fragile epithelium leading to incomplete removal, cyst extensions extending into cancellous bone, satellite cysts found in the wall, experience of the surgeon, formation of further new cysts from other remnants of the dental epithelium.

  8. Epithelial cell rests of Malassez - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epithelial_cell_rests_of...

    (1) The HERS, (2) epithelial rests of Malassez, (3) dental follicle, (4) cementoblasts, (5) periodontal ligament, (6) alveolar cells, (7) bone, (8) odontoblasts. In dentistry, the epithelial cell rests of Malassez (ERM) or epithelial rests of Malassez (pax epithelialis pediodontii) are part of the periodontal ligament cells around a tooth.

  9. Dentigerous cyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentigerous_cyst

    The cyst surrounds the crown and extends for some distance along the root surface so that a significant portion of the root appears to lie within the cyst, as if the tooth was erupting through the centre of the cyst. The radiographic distinction between an enlarged dental follicle and a small dentigerous cyst can be difficult and fairly arbitrary.
