Eruption Cyst : A Case Report.

The eruption cyst is regarded as a soft tissue analogue of the dentigerous cyst, but is considered as a distinct clinical entity. It is defined as a cyst that lies superficial to the crown of an erupting tooth, and is lined by stratified squamous non-keratinizing epithelium. Clinically, it appears as a soft, often translucent swelling of the gingival mucosa overlying the crown of the involved tooth, and may vary from pink to bluish-purple in colour. It is usually seen in children and the teeth commonly affected include the permanent first molars and maxillary incisors. Radiographically, no evidence of bone involvement is seen and treatment consists of simple excision of the roof of the cyst. This paper describes a case of an eruption cyst in a 7-year old male patient, which presented as a swelling involving the gingiva overlying the crown of 21, along with a review of the literature.

Eruption cyst: a case report

Eruption cyst (EC) is a benign cyst associated with a primary or permanent tooth in its soft tissue phase after erupting through the bone. It is most prevalent in the Caucasian race. It is clinically significant in that knowledge among general dentists is very essential regarding this developmental disturbance to reach the correct diagnosis and to provide proper treatment. We are reporting a case of eruption cyst in an 11 year old boy.

Eruption cyst: A literature review and four case reports.

Eruption cyst is a benign cyst associated with a primary or permanent tooth in its soft tissue phase after erupting through the bone. It is most prevalent in the Caucasian race. Intraoral examination of four patients revealed eruption cyst. Among these, in three patients it occurred in the maxillary arch and one had it in the mandibular arch. All were associated with permanent tooth. Surgical treatment was done in three cases and in one case the cyst disappeared gradually and tooth erupted in normal pattern. Four cases of eruption cyst from India are presented and literature on this condition is reviewed. It is clinically significant in that knowledge among general dentists is very essential regarding this developmental disturbance to reach the correct diagnosis and to provide proper treatment.

Congenital eruption cyst: a case report

Congenital pathologies are those existing at or dating from birth. Occurrence of congenital cystic lesions in the oral cavity is uncommon in neonates. Eruption cyst (EC) is listed among these unusual lesions. It occurs within the mucosa overlying teeth that are about to erupt and, according to the current World Health Organization (WHO) classification of epithelial cysts of the jaws, EC is a separate entity. This paper presents a case of congenital EC successfully managed by close monitoring of the lesion, without any surgical procedure or tooth extraction. Eruption of the teeth involved, primary central incisors, occurred at the fourth month of age. During this time neither the child nor mother had any complication such as pain on sucking, refusal to feed, airway obstruction, or aspiration of fluids or teeth.

Patologias congênitas são aquelas que aparecem ao nascimento. A ocorrência de lesões císticas congênitas na cavidade bucal é rara em recém-nascidos. O cisto de erupção (CE) pode ser considerado como lesão rara que se localiza na mucosa que recobre um dente que está próximo do momento de sua erupção. De acordo com a classificação de cistos epiteliais dos maxilares, descrita pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), os CE são considerados uma entidade distinta. O presente relato descreve um caso clínico de um cisto congênito de erupção tratado com sucesso somente pelo acompanhamento da lesão, sem a necessidade de nenhuma intervenção cirúrgica ou extração dentária. A erupção dos dentes envolvidos (incisivos centrais decíduos) ocorreu aos 4 meses de idade e durante este período não houve reclamações da mãe e/ou da criança em relação a dor para sucção, recusa para se alimentar, obstrução das vias aéreas e aspiração de fluidos ou de dentes.
