RESUMO
Aim: The aim of this article is to report a case of multiple radicular cysts in an 8-year-old. Background: Multiple radicular cysts are an uncommon and rare entity in mixed dentition. Management of these cysts needs careful examination of the present deciduous and erupting permanent dentition. Here, we present a case of multiple radicular cysts in an 8-year-old with no other significant medical history. The treatment approach included removal of the involved deciduous teeth and enucleation of cysts, followed by curettage and the use of Whitehead's varnish. Case description: The patient reported to the department with a chief complaint of pain in the right lower front tooth region and upper left back tooth region for 2 months. There was no relevant medical or dental history. A routine panoramic radiograph was done, which revealed multiple radiolucency. Clinical presentation, radiograph, and aspiration cytology concluded the diagnosis as multiple radicular cysts. The treatment plan for management was the extraction of the teeth involved, followed by enucleation. Whitehead's varnish dressing was placed in the extraction socket. A regular follow-up was done, showing the absence of radiolucency and eruption of permanent teeth. Conclusion: Management of radicular cysts in mixed dentition is challenging. Preserving the vitality of erupting permanent teeth is of utmost importance. Significance: Multiple radicular cysts are an uncommon finding in young children. Proper medical history is important to rule out any syndrome. Correct diagnosis and early management are prognostic factors. How to cite this article: Sharma A, Chhabra A, Sharma I, et al.
