Unreferenced date December 2006 The globulomaxillary cyst is a cyst that appears between a maxillary lateral incisor and the adjacent Canine tooth canine . It exhibits as an inverted pear shaped radiolucency on radiographs , or X ray films. However, all regional teeth will be vital. The globulomaxillary cyst often causes the roots of adjacent teeth to diverge . This cyst should not be confused with a nasopalatine cyst . The developmental origin has been disputed. Today, most literature agree based on overwhelming evidence that the cyst is predominantly of tooth origin odontogenic . Treatment Treatment is by enucleation, or surgical removal.

The cyst cavity is lined by epithelial cell s derived from the reduced Tooth enamel enamel epithelium of the tooth forming organ. Regarding its pathogenesis , it has been suggested that the pressure exerted by an erupting tooth on the follicle may obstruct venous flow inducing accumulation of exudate between the reduced enamel epithelium and the tooth crown . In addition to the developmental origin, some authors have suggested that periapical inflammation of non vital deciduous teeth in proximity to the follicles of unerupted permanent successors may be a factor for triggering this type of cyst formation. Histologically a normal dental follicle is lined by enamel epithelium, whereas a dentigerous cyst is lined by non keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Since the dentigerous cyst develops from follicular epithelium it has more potential for growth, differentiation and degeneration than a radicular cyst. Occasionally the wall of a dentigerous cyst may give rise to a more ominous mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Due to the tendency for dentigerous cysts to expand rapidly, they may cause pathological fractures of jaw bones. The usual radiographic appearance is that of a well demarcated radiolucent lesion attached at an acute angle to the cervical area of an unerupted tooth. The border of the lesion may be radiopaque. The radiographic differentiation between a dentigerous cyst and a normal dental follicle is based merely on size. Radiographically, a dentigerous cyst should always be differentiated from a normal dental follicle. Dentigerous cysts are the most common cysts with this radiographic appearance.
