Abstract

|
In treatment of dentigerous cyst, complete enucleation, histopathologic examination and postoperative care are important to prevent the potential complications (mural ameloblastoma, squamous cell carcinoma). On the other hand, a maxillary impacted supernumerary anterior tooth are removed surgically, owing to the possibility of the cyst formation in future. After the cyst enucleation and extraction of the involved tooth, the wound area sutured and removable resin plate is then applied. In this operation, the postoperative bleeding and infection is likely to occur owing to postoperative accumulation of hematoma & seroma, psychologic stress and other contaminated factor. So, the authors established the immediate rubber & iodoform gauze drainage into the sutured wound of cyst enucleation & tooth extraction for the prevention of postoperative bleeding and infection. The removable resin splint are not used because of the poor cooperation and economic factor. The results were more favorable without the postoperative bleeding & wound infection in a cerebral palsy patient.
