Abstract

Children's oral cavity can find a variety of inflammatory lesions. Radicular cysts are odontogenic in nature and relatively uncommon in the primary dentition, accounting for just 0.5 to 3.3 % of all radicular cysts in both the primary and permanent dentition. Treatment options for these cystic lesions include: endodontic therapy, extraction of the involved tooth, cyst enucleation or marsupialization. This case report describes surgical management of radicular cyst associated with an infected primary molar and a review of the literature.
