Abstract
Dentigerous cysts (also known as follicular cysts) are odontogenic cysts of developmental origin associated with the crown of unerupted or partially erupted or impacted teeth. Accumulation of fluid between the reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crown is suggested as the possible etiopathogenesis of this particular cyst by most authors. However in addition to the developmental origin, few authors have suggested an inflammatory origin to the formation of dentigerous cyst. The dentigerous cysts are commonly associated with impacted canines and third molars. However, bilateral occurrence of the cyst is rare. Here, the authors report a case of dentigerous cyst involving bilaterally impacted mandibular canines in a non-syndromic 12 year old male patient which was surgically enucleated.
