Abstract |
Background |
Jaw cysts often deeply involve adjacent tooth roots, making it difficult to preserve them. The purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate the effectiveness of an intentional replantation (IR) strategy combined with cyst enucleation in preserving cyst-involved teeth during jaw cyst removal.
Materials and Methods |
Fifteen patients with jaw cysts and deeply involved teeth were treated with IR and cyst enucleation. All patients received root canal therapy prior to surgery, except for one patient who received it during surgery. The involved teeth were extracted, and the root surface was carefully cleaned before IR and cyst enucleation. Patients were followed up for 12–14 months, with indicators including clinical complaints, replanted tooth stability, and root resorption.
Results |
No cyst recurrence was observed, and all replanted teeth survived with good local gingival condition and no marked swelling or recession. Radiographic findings showed clear periodontal space surrounding the replanted teeth. One replanted tooth exhibited slight root resorption due to occlusal trauma, but the resorption ceased after occlusal adjustment.
Conclusions |
IR combined with cyst enucleation is an effective strategy for thoroughly cleaning jaw cysts and preserving teeth involved in the cyst.
