ollicular cys.
is an odontogenic cyst that forms around the crown of an unerupted tooth.
There are usually no symptoms associated with a dentigerous cyst unless there is infection, visible swelling and pain.
Approximately 70% of dentigerous cysts occur in the mandible and 30% in the maxilla.
The location of dentigerous cysts is usually found in mandibular third molars, maxillary canines, mandibular second premolars and maxillary third molars.
1,2 ,3,4,5
Dentigerous cysts are the most common type of cyst in the mandible.
The development of odontogenic cysts accounts for about 14%-24% of all epithelial cysts in the jaws.
The normal follicular space in a dentigerous cyst is 3-4 mm.
If the follicular space on the impaction tooth is more than 5 m, then it can be suspected as a dentigerous cyst.
This cyst covers the crown of an unerupted tooth and is attached to the cementoenamel junction.
When the cyst is smaller, it is difficult to distinguish a dentigerous cyst from a large dental follicle.
dentigerous cyst exists when the distance between the crown and the dental follicle is greater than 2.

The condition of a tooth that cannot erupt beyond the arch during tooth eruption is called an impaction tooth.
Abnormalities of tooth growth and development, bone layer density, soft tissue thickness, chronic infection, and lack of space are the causes of impaction teeth.
8 Delayed tooth eruption can cause accumulation of fluid in the reduced enamel epithelial layer or between the epithelium and crowns of teeth that are reduced causing the formation of dentigerous cysts common factors that cause impaction teeth are trauma, infection and abnormal tooth development.
Cysts may be discovered during routine radiographic examinations.
Conventional imaging modalities such as panoramic and periapical radiographs are commonly used imaging modalities and have some limitations, namely 3-dimensional anatomical structures are displayed in 2dimensional form, so that superimposition.
10 Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is very important in helping to establish the diagnosis and identify the location, boundaries and shape, internal structure, effects on the tissues surrounding the lesion.
The main advantage of CBCT is that it provides multiplanar reform with volume reconstruction and 3D images at a much lower radiation dose when compared to computed The aim of this case report is to description of a dentigerous cyst associated with impaction of right

DISCUSSION
Dentigerous cysts are small asymptomatic lesions found on radiographs, although some may grow to a size large enough to cause bony expansion which is usually not felt until secondary infection occurs.
It is highly variable in size, often occurring in maxillary and mandibular third molars, maxillary canines and mandibular second These cysts usually occur in adolescents or young adults 20-40 years.
2,3,12
Clinically, dentigerous cysts are generally asymptomatic, the swelling grows slowly, and there are unerupted teeth.
As the cyst enlarges it can cause expansion and swelling of the jaw.
This can occur when the cyst invades the maxillary antrum.
Failure to intervene can result in encroachment of the cyst into the nasal septum, orbit, can cause transformation, but this is very rare.
The epicenter of a dentigerous cyst is found over the crown of the associated tooth, most commonly in the mandibular or maxillary third molars and maxillary canines.
This cyst is attached to the cemento enamel junction.
Well defined boundaries, the internal structure is radiolucent, the effect on the surrounding tissue displacement and resorption of adjacent teeth.
1,6 Cyst growth is slow and regular, making dentigerous cysts have clear sclerotic borders, with a clear cortex, and characterized by a radiopaque border thin, especially if the size of the cyst is relatively large or if there is a shift.
This case shows that the patient complains of pain and swelling occurs, the cyst is on the impacted tooth of the maxillary right third molar which has not yet grown, the location of the cyst in this case is attached to the cemento enamel It appears that the cyst is enlarged causing expansion in the right maxillary sinus and towards the buccal.
It appears that the cyst extends to the apical second premolar, first molar and right maxillary second molar.
It can be seen that the roots of the second premolar, first molar and second molar of the right maxillary tooth did not shift and root resorbed.
Radiographic examination is important for diagnosing and planning treatment in cases of dentigerous cysts.
Panoramic radiograph is an imaging modality that is often used to make a Jurnal Radiologi Dentomaksilofasial Indonesia 2023.

CASE REPORT

Unicystic ameloblastoma progressing from the occlusal to the left mandibular second molar causing the body of the mandible and ramus to the sigmoid notch and neck of the condyle as well as the root of the left first molar resorption and displacement of the second molar1 diagnosis, in this case the impaction teeth in the maxilla are clearly visible, but the lesion boundaries are not clearly visible and the relationship of the lesion with the teeth involved is not very clear.
This is because the anatomical structures in the maxilla are often superimposed.
CBCT represents the most significant technological advance in maxillofacial imaging since the introduction of panoramic radiography.
It is used in the dental and maxillary areas and as the imaging modality of choice in certain clinical 1,10 The advantage of using CBCT is that it can see the boundaries of the lesion in hard tissue and the lesion can be seen from various planes .
xial, coronal, and sagitta.
13 CBCT very helpful in this case, the relationship of the lesion with the right maxillary sinus was seen and the teeth involved with the lesion were clearly visible.
The differential diagnosis of a dentigerous cyst, namely unicystic ameloblastoma located around the crown of an unerupted tooth, is unilocular in Often occurs in young patients, 50% of these tumors are found in patients who are in the second Unicystic ameloblastoma more than 90% is found in the maxilla and mandible, especially in the posterior region of the mandible.
The unicystic ameloblastoma generally forms dentigerous cysts clinically and radiographically, although some of them are not associated with erupting teeth.
1,14
Dentigerous cyst and unicystic ameloblastoma, radiographically the appearance of dentigerous cyst and ameloblastoma is very similar because there is a unilocular radiolucent appearance, resembling a dentigerous cyst.
It is also located around teeth that have not yet erupted, and occurs at the age of under 30 years.
The standard treatment for maxillary dentigerous cysts is enucleation and extraction of the associated teeth.
CONCLUSION
Panoramic radiography and CBCT can be used as a supporting examination in making a diagnosis.
The dentigerous cyst associated with impaction right maxillary third molar is clearly visible on the panoramic radiograph and CBCT so that it can assist in planning the appropriate treatment for the Jurnal Radiologi Dentomaksilofasial Indonesia 2023.
