title: [Large dentigerous cyst caused by retained tooth 25].
abstract: Follicular cysts are benign, non-inflammatory odontogenic cysts, usually painless and discovered during routine radiographic examination. The article describes a case of a large follicular cyst with retained tooth 25. Pantomographic x ray showed the presence of a large follicular cyst located on the side of the impacted 25 tooth. The cyst has been enucleated and the tooth extracted surgically with subsequent closure of oro-antral communication. After 3 months orthodontic treatment was initiated.
