title: Intraoral approach to large dermoid cysts of the floor of the mouth: a technical note.
abstract: An intraoral approach to dermoid cysts of the floor of the mouth is described. With this technique, it is possible to obtain adequate surgical access in cases of very large dermoid cysts involving simultaneously the floor of the mouth and the submental space, thus avoiding a skin incision in the submental fold.
