What are dental cysts?

A dental cyst is basically a closed sac of tissue. Cysts usually develop around or next to a tooth in soft oral tissues such as the gums, lips, and jawbone. If a cyst turns into a serious complication, you may need to have major surgery. A cyst may begin to form in various tissues in the mouth, face, or jaw; in most cases, they are free of infection when they first begin to form.

Symptoms of Oral Cysts:

In general, if you have an infected dental cyst it will be inflamed, swollen and painful. If your cyst is in the mucosal lining of your mouth, it may stand out to you as a lesion or blister. If you have a cyst that is not infected, there are usually no obvious symptoms. Therefore, unless your cyst has expanded to the point where a lump forms that can be seen or felt, it can usually only be detected with a diagnostic scan or x-ray.

Some of the most common oral cysts

Dentigerous Cyst – Usually develops near or above the top of the wisdom tooth.

Periapical Cyst (commonly known as Radicular Cyst) – A dental cyst that normally forms at the base of a tooth as a result of pulp infection or nerve death. A periapical cyst may or may not potentially develop into an abscess.

Mucocele Cyst (often called Mucosal Cyst) – This type of cyst usually develops in the soft inside parts of your mouth, inner cheek, lips, tongue. They usually occur due to trauma or irritation to the tissues in the affected areas.

Odontogenic Cysts – A group of dental cysts usually found in the jawbone. An odontogenic cyst grows quite large before obvious symptoms appear.

Cysts often begin to form at the tip of the roots of a dead or dying tooth. Some forms occur because teeth grow improperly and position themselves in the mouth, while others occur due to the abnormal way in which a tooth develops.
