Suggest Remedy For Cyst Near Teeths
Hello. Im a 20 year old girl. I recently got dental braces and had to extract 5 of my teeth. (From center teeth on both sides its teeth number 4, top and bottom and a wisdom tooth number 28) I already took out 3, but the fourth tooth my dentist said she would refer me to a specialist to remove the wisdom tooth, the other 4th tooth and a CYST.I know a little bit on what a cyst is (liquid or air or fluid filled sac).I want to know how would they treat the cyst if it is above my 3 teeth. The cyst appeared on my exray when i had to extract my teeth. Is a serious problem? Is it a type of cancer? what are the possible reasons for this cyst?Some years ago i fell of my bicycle and injured myself just under my nose (almost where the cyst is). I had a scar under my nose, but since i didnt notice it, it has almost completly disappeared. Could that injury be the cause of the cyst?Please help. I m afraid of finding out that it is a serious problem a little too late.Thank You.Tiyane

Hello, Thank you for consulting with HCM.
There is nothing to worry about the cyst of teeth, as it is not a cancer of teeth. this cyst has occurred because of trauma on the tooth, when you might have fallen. As it is just a collection of pus surrounded with a border.
So just a small surgery will be done to remove the cyst. As it is not a serious problem.
Hope it will help you.

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,
First of all i would tell you to relax, it is not that major problem, not ant type of cancer, it is removed with a minor surgery by giving local anesthesia if it is related with your impacted wisdom tooth it will be removed along with the removal of the tooth in the same procedure, Get an OPG radiograph done i would suggest you to follow the instructions given to you, consult an Oral Surgeon and get it removed.
Take care!
