Abstract
A dentigerous cyst is an asymptomatic lesion of odontogenic origin mostly involving the mandible. It is associated with the crown of unerupted, partially erupted, or impacted teeth with a higher incidence occurring in males. It is discovered during routine radiographic examinations unless manifests clinically as a large lesion. Radiographically, a dentigerous cyst presents as a radiolucent lesion enveloping the crown of the involved tooth. Enucleation and marsupialization are the surgical modalities. Here we report a case of dentigerous cyst involving mandibular right transmigrated canine.
