ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Radicular cysts (RC) of dental origin are
slow-growing lesions which are asymptomatic in most of the cases.
The management of RCs is still existing over a debate. Therefore,
we present a study of nonsurgical management of pathological cysts
of dental origin.
AIM:
To study the success of non-surgical management of patients
presenting with pathological cysts of dental origin in terms of
healing and recurrence.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Prospective study was done
in 25 patients presenting with pain and swelling in the Department
of conservative and endodontics for a period of 2 years. The cystic
cavity was opened and drained using various methods such as
decompression, aspiration-irrigation, placement of intracanal Ca
(OH)2 and lesion sterilization.
RESULTS:
The success rate of nonsurgical treatment was 80 %
while 12% of cases presented with recurrence and 8% of cases had
delayed healing.
CONCLUSION:
Follow-up and assessment of healing are
essential after nonsurgical treatment of the cysts. The surgical
approach is used for cases which are refractory to nonsurgical
method.
KEYWORDS:
Nonsurgical method, Ca (OH)2 decompression,
