Jaw cyst symptoms vary but it is also possible that it does not sign any symptoms. For example, the symptoms may not be found in the first control. If it is small and there is no pain or noticeable swelling, it may not be detectable. However, when the cyst grows and becomes more distinct, it can be easily noticed.
Jaw cyst symptoms:
At the advance stage, tooth and jaw bone deformations and facial swelling may occur.
Jaw cysts are odontogenic and pathogenic structures.
They can be seen anywhere on the jawbone or root site of the teeth.
They usually manifest themselves with swelling.
Jaw cysts originating from teeth can cause pain as well as swelling.
Some patients can live for many years without knowing that they have a jaw cyst. They become aware of these sacs as they grow.
When the problem is not resolved with drug treatment, jaw surgery comes into play.
After visiting the dentist due to the symptoms of jaw cyst, the specialist may diagnose a cyst during the first examination. The dentist can drain the liquid inside the jaw cyst with the help of a medical needle. If the same problem recurs after this procedure, the cyst is removed by surgical operation. The dentist and the patient determine how the process will proceed.
The cyst can be removed as a single piece (enucleation) or it can be removed by pieces (marsupialization). The one-piece procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia. If the cyst is too large to be removed in one operation, the size is first reduced and then the site is cleared. In this surgery, a small hole is made in the area and the fluid in the cyst is drained. Afterwards, the cyst is removed.
After jaw cyst surgery, the body repairs itself, that is, the area where the cyst was removed heals over time and no scar remains. We had to add that, the process is extremely easy however post operative care is very important after the operation.
After cleaning the cyst in a sensitive area, it is necessary to keep the site clean and sterile. It is also necessary to observe the healing process and to keep the recovery status of the scar under control. The scenario of recurrence of the cyst is possible too. Therefore, it is essential that you do not miss your check-ups.
If full recovery has completed after the jaw cyst operation, the cyst will not form again. However, it is possible for different cysts to form in the jaw and mouth region. In this regard, regular control is essential. You can contact your dentist if you have symptoms of a jaw cyst in the similar area.
Jaw cysts are usually not dangerous. However, benign jaw cysts that are not treated in time may cause damage to the jawbone. Swelling may enlarge, inflammation may occur that will affect different body regions, and it may turn into a malignant tumor at advanced stage.
Jaw cysts can be seen in the tongue, cheek, palate, and mouth. The reason for its formation is rather the destruction of the oral tissues.
