ODONTOGENIC CYSTS

Odontogenic cysts are common pathological lesions of the jaws that originate from odontogenic epithelial tissues. They may develop as a result of inflammatory or developmental processes and can affect both the maxilla and mandible. This article discusses the main types, clinical features, diagnostic methods, and treatment approaches of odontogenic cysts. Special attention is given to early diagnosis, appropriate surgical management, and prevention of possible complications and recurrence.
