Odontogenic Cysts and tumors- Dr. Flores Flashcards
Ectomesenchyme
- derived from Neural Crest cells
- Dentin, Cementum, and Pulp
Epithelium-Ectomesenchyme interaction in tooth development
- Ectomesenchyme is derived from neural crest cells
- Oral ectoderm & ectomesenchyme interact to start Tooth development
- epithelium and ectomesenchyme interact to form tooth
Epithelium
Enamel
What are the 2 prominent structures of odontogenic epithelium
Rests of Serres
Rests of Malassez
Characterize the rests of serres
- rests of dental lamina found in gingival soft tissues
- round to ovoid aggregates of epithelial cells
- clear cytoplasm (Glycogen rich)
- result from early breakup of dental lamina during bell stage
Characterize the rests of malassez
- result from breakup of Hertwig’s root sheath during root formation
What is a cyst
- pathologic cavity
- lined by epithelium
- filled with fluid or keratin
What do cysts and tumors share in common
- occupy space and may displace or replace normal tissues
- Resorb adjacent teeth or push teeth out of their normal alignment
- Cause expansion of the bone, usually painless
- compress nerves and cause numbness
-
tooth vitality unaffected
- cysts do not interrupt blood supply to teeth
- most tumors
- some cysts and tumors are radiographically similar
what are the differences between tumors and cysts
- cysts
- central lumen
- Tumors
- solid growth
characterize the etiology/development of cysts
- inflammatory:
- Periapical (radicular) cyst
- Residual periapical (radicular) cyst
- Buccal bifurcation cyst
- paradental cyst
- Developmental
- Dentigerous cyst
- Primordial cyst
- Odontogenic Keratocst (keratocystic odontogenic tumor)
- Orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst
- Gingival (alveolar) cyst of the newborn
- Gingival cyst of the adult
- lateral periodontal cyst
- Glandular odontogenic cyst
Characterize the etiology/development of tumors
-

What is the etiology of Odontogenic Cysts
inflammatory
Development
Periapical Cyst (Radicular Cyst)
- from Rests of Malassez
- Related to inflammation
- Empty cyst cavity w/epithelial lining
Residual Cyst
- appears after tooth extraction
Buccal Bifurcation Cyst
- Develops on buccal aspect of mandibular 1st perm molar
- occurs in 5-13 y.o.
- Clinical swelling and foul-tasting discharge
- Radigraphically
- root apices of molar tipped toward lingual mandibular cortex
- associated with proliferative periostitis
Paradental Cyst
- Distal or buccal of partially erupted tooth w/history of pericoronitis
- confused w/lateral dentigerous cyst
Dentigerous Cysts
- Aka Follicular Cyst
- radiolucency surrounding the crown of an impacted tooth, attached to tooth at CEJ
- Mandibular & Maxillary 3rd molars
-
Histology
- mucous, ciliated, and sebaceous elements
- Tx:
- enucleation
- marxupialization
What are the 3 things you can get in a Dentigerous cell wall?
- Squamous Cell Carcinoma
- Intraosseous Mucoepidermoid carcinoma
- Ameloblastoma
Eruption Cyst
- Aka Eruption Hematoma
- soft tissue analog of dentigerous cyst (follicular Cyst)
- Develops as a result from:
- separation of dental follicle from crown of erupting tooth
- within soft tissue
- overlyalveolar bone
- separation of dental follicle from crown of erupting tooth
- Appears as soft translucent swelling in gingival mucosa over crown of erupting tooth
Odontogenic Keratocyst
- Aka Keratocystic Odontogenic Tumor
- Common Developmental Odontogenic cysts
- Locally aggressive potential
- high recurrence rate
- PTCH gene mutation
- associated with:
- NBCCS or Gorlin syndrome
- sporadic OKCs
- associated with:
- ⅔ of cases occur in mandible
- molar/ramus region
Odontogenic Keratocyst: histology
- Uniform layer of stratified squamous epithelium
- 6-8 layers thick
- Basal Epithelial layer composed of:
- cuboidal to columnar cells
- palisaded and hyperchromatic
- cuboidal to columnar cells
- Corrugated (wavy) layer of parakeratin
