Follicular cyst at the mandibular first molar – case report

The aim of the study is to show follicular cyst at the lower first molar in a 10 years old girl with dentitio tarda. A cystectomy was first performed, followed by orthodontic treatment with brackets on the first and the second molar in the mandible. Also a maxillary mobile active orthodontic appliance with distal hooks was part of the treatment, and was used for elastic ligating with the brackets. A selective stripping was performed on the lower second deciduous molar. After 15 months treatment, the teeth were aligned and positioned in the dental arches. The interdisciplinary cooperation between the orthodontists and the oral surgeons is necessary during and while planning the treatment of such cases
