Abstract

Traumas to deciduous teeth may have severe consequences. This article addresses a dentigerous cyst case report associated with an upper permanent incisor, unusual site of occurrence, which was impacted and dislodged from its natural site of eruption after trauma at the deciduous predecessor.

The main aspects of etiopathology and its clinical characteristics are also discussed, with especial focus on the radiographic features of the diagnosis in order to allow for an accurate surgical planning.
