Jaw Cyst Treatment

Jaw cyst treatment is a procedure aimed at removing cysts that develop in the jawbone or surrounding soft tissues. These cysts are often benign but can cause damage if they grow and pressure the surrounding tissues, leading to discomfort, swelling, and potential tooth displacement.

Treatment Process

  • Diagnosis: The cyst is diagnosed through imaging like X-rays or CT scans.
  • Surgical Removal: The most common treatment involves surgically removing the cyst. This may require bone grafting to restore the affected bone structure.
  • Follow-Up: Regular follow-up visits are important to monitor recovery and ensure no recurrence.
  • If untreated, jaw cysts can lead to bone erosion or infection, so early intervention is crucial
