Question : I had a tooth extraction last week where my dentist found out that there is a cyst on the front teeth ...as per her analysis this cyst was formed very early when i fell down during my childhood day (when i was 8) ...she then told to get an OPG xray done. I have attached the xray report can you please check and let me know if there any multiple cysts?? any of them can be tumurous

Brief Answer:
Nothing to worry.

Detailed Answer:
Hi..
Thanks for writing to us..

I do not find any cyst or tumor and the cyst that you are talking about can be very much due to injury..

Cyst can form under the root of an injured tooth due to necrotic tissue.

Rest areas in the x ray looks fine, so do not worry about it..

All looks fine..

Please let me know if I can assist you further..

Regards.
