This is a cystic jaw lesion that can enlarge within the bone and recur after treatment.
Many people have no symptoms at first. Others may notice jaw swelling, pain, a feeling of pressure, loosening of teeth, or repeated swelling or infection around the jaw.
Imaging helps show how far the jaw lesion extends, whether nearby teeth are affected, and whether it is likely to weaken the bone or come back after treatment.
Dental imaging and CT help show how far the lesion extends and whether teeth or nearby structures are affected.
Management usually involves oral and maxillofacial evaluation, surgical treatment, and follow-up for recurrence.
