Abstract :

Dentigerous cysts (DC) is one of the commonest odontogenic cysts of the oral cavity, and more prone to develop from odontogenic tissue encompassing an impacted tooth. Odontogenic cysts are more potential towards neoplastic transformation, among them odontogenic keratocyst and DC has highest potential. Carcinoma arising in a dentigerous cyst is extremely rare.
