Abstract

The lateral periodontal cyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst usually found in the premolar area of the lower jaw. The clinical, radiographic and histopathological features of 32 previously unreported lateral periodontal cysts were reviewed. In four cases the follow-up, which extended over several years, was also studied. Different theories of pathogenesis are discussed.
