A dental cyst is a hollow formation, most often found in the root area.
Usually has liquid contents. A cyst is the body’s initial response to infection. One of the negative aspects of a cyst is its constant growth, which means that the healthy bone surrounding the cyst is constantly affected.
The main causes of cyst formation are infections and injuries.
The cyst occurs as a result of Sinusitis, in which the infection enters the lesion through the blood.
The cyst may not have clinical signs for a very long time.
Clinical signs appear when the cyst reaches a large size, 3-4 cm, or when the body’s resistance drops. for example, during infectious diseases. And the part where the cyst is located swells and deformation is observed.
Exacerbation of a dental cyst leads to purulent processes, which often result in tooth extraction.
To avoid complications, you should contact in time, for example, the Kamar dental center, choosing a doctor who will treat you.
The sooner a cyst is detected, the greater the chance of saving the tooth. Treatment of dental cysts can be carried out using two methods depending on the type and size of the cyst: conservative and surgical.
In a conservative procedure, the cavity is treated and filled with special healing materials, but this method is only applicable for small cavities up to 8 mm.
The surgical method is most often used. With this method, the cyst is removed, sometimes it is necessary to remove the adjacent tooth.
After removing the cyst, the dentist prescribes treatment, which includes rinsing with antiseptic agents, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory painkillers, and antibiotics.
Treatment of cysts is more successful in the early stages. For this reason, frequent visits to the dentist will allow previously treated root canals to be examined, which will avoid complications.
