title: Radicular cyst associated with a primary molar following pulp therapy: a case report.
abstract: A radicular cyst arising from the primary second molar and causing displacement of the permanent successor to the lower border of the mandible, with accompanying buccal expansion, was examined clinically and radiographically. Extraction of the primary molar and extirpation of the cyst led to uneventful healing. The primary molar had received pulp treatment with therapeutic agents approximately 1.5 years prior to the patient's first visit. The relationship between pulp treatment and rapid growth of the radicular cyst is discussed.
