Abstract
Introduction: Dentigerous cyst is an odontogenic cyst. It is caused by accumulation of fluid between the epithelium of the crown and the crown of an unerupted tooth. It is attached to the neck of the tooth and its size increases by the expansion of the follicle. This cyst most commonly affects the impacted 3rd molar and maxillary canine. Case Report: In the present paper, we report a case of dentigerous cyst associated with impacted canine in a 13year aged female. Conclusion: The patient was treated surgically by enucleation of the cyst.
