ABSTRACT

Cystic lesions in mandible and maxilla are not infrequently encountered in the field of otolaryngology and most of them are associated with development of tooth and so a variety of disease entities are to be differentiated. Among them, ameloblastoma and dentigerous cyst are the most important diseases to be differentiated but practically the number of cases of experiences in otolaryngology is a few and the treatment principle is still controversial.

Recently the authors have experienced cases of ameloblastoma and dentigerous cyst, which presented with repeated swelling in mandible angle. So we report these cases with summary of ameloblastoma and dentigerous cyst by the review of literature.
