Cyst Dental Follicular

A dental follicular cyst (p. Dentalis follicularis) is a neoplasm that occurs as a result of inflammation of the dental sac (follicle) on the surface of the tooth.

A follicle is a small depression on the surface of a tooth that contains nerves and blood vessels. When inflammation occurs in this depression, a cyst can form. A cyst can come in a variety of sizes and shapes, but is usually round or oval in shape.

A dental follicular cyst can cause pain in the tooth, swelling and redness of the gums, and can also lead to tooth decay and loss.

Various methods are used to treat dental follicular cyst, such as surgical removal of the cyst, use of medications and physical therapy.

In general, dental follicular cyst is a serious disease that requires timely treatment to maintain healthy teeth and gums.



In dentistry, a follicular or pericoronal cyst is a tumor formed by the epithelial tissue of a tooth. It is diagnosed if it is detected during an X-ray examination of the upper bottom of the dentofacial area. The tumor appears as an independent formation or forms at the site of tooth extraction or destruction. This is a rare phenomenon that occurs less frequently than other dental diseases.

Unpleasant sensations and painful attacks occur due to a cyst, whereas with a tumor. Dentofacial formation is accompanied by a pathological change in the bone tissue of the jawbone and the surrounding soft tissues. The epithelium is a connective tissue formation of the peripheral system that maintains cell viability, sometimes increases in thickness, which complicates diagnosis. The functional significance of dental epithelial tissue is represented in the protection of the apices of tooth roots from mechanical damage and disease. Cysts are formed as a result of epithelial convergence, that is, the overlap of one wall of another cell. One explanation for the appearance of the tumor: the surrounding serous fluid becomes clogged with epithelial cells containing potassium.

Follicle cysts are rare formations of the dentofacial apparatus, but they occur
