Odontogenic cyst induction by periapical infection in rats

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that odontogenic cysts can be induced by periapical infection. Pulp extirpation and reaming beyond the root apices were performed in 53 lower first molars in 27 Sprague-Dawley rats. The cavities were left open to allow continuous contamination by oral bacteria. Animals were killed at 6 and more than 8 months after operation. Odontogenic cysts were found in association with 8/53 teeth in 6 animals. Histologically, cysts were observed around the lower incisors… Show more
