It encloses the crown of an un-erupted tooth by the expansion of its follicle within the follicular space. It is normally painlessly discovered during the routine radiographic examination. Importance of keratinization in odontogenic cysts is still a mystery as it is a very rare entity. This article reports a case of keratinizing dentigerous cyst associated with a mandible.Case Presentation: A 50-year-old male patient with a chief complaint of swelling and pain in the right side of the lower jaw for 4 months. The lesion was provisionally diagnosed as OKC or dentigerous cyst after a clinical and radiographic examination. Treatment consisted of surgical excision and the excised specimen was sent for histopathological examination which confirmed the findings of a keratinizing dentigerous cyst.Conclusions: Only a few cases of keratinizing dentigerous cyst has been reported in the literature so far to the best of our knowledge. Early recognition and intervention play a key role in its management due to its malignant transformation and potential for recurrence.","PeriodicalId":352162,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Drug Research And Dental Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129868420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
