Article Synopsis
- There are six types of aggressive jaw cysts that need careful management to prevent recurrence or severe disease: botryoid cysts, cysts that can turn into carcinomas, glandular odontogenic cysts, calcifying cystic odontogenic tumors, unicystic ameloblastomas, and keratocystic odontogenic tumors.
- The estimated incidence of these cysts varies based on review studies, highlighting the importance of understanding their behavior.
- Proper treatment relies on accurately determining whether a cyst is benign or potentially aggressive, which requires knowledge of their common clinical presentations and frequencies.
