Abstract:
Purpose: Odontogenic cysts occur in the oral and maxillofacial region; most jaw cysts are lined by epithelium derived from odontogenic epithelium associated with tooth development. Odontogenic cysts can be classified as “developmental type” or “inflammatory type”. A correct diagnosis is essential for planning the treatment of conditions that compromise the maxilla-mandibular complex. Given that, a significative number of cystic lesions of the jaws share similar clinical and radiographic features, the diagnosis of odontogenic cysts, usually requires detailed analysis of the clinical, radiological and histopathological findings. All odontogenic cysts, with the exception of inflammatory periapical cyst and lateral radicular cyst, should be treated with surgical intervention. The periapical cystic lesions are usually treated by conservative endodontic treatment (periapical curettage) or surgical treatment (enucleation, marsupialization and decompression). In lateral radicular and inflammatory periapical cysts, surgery is indicated only if the lesions do not regress after removal of odontogenic infection intra-canal the affected tooth. In case of residual cyst, surgery is the only option.
Case Report: A 55-year-old female patient, caucasian, attended the Oral-Maxillofacial Surgery consultation at Clitrofa – Centro Médico, Dentário e Cirúrgico in Trofa – Portugal, to evaluate a dental cyst in the second quadrant diagnosed during the evaluation to place dental implants in the upper jaw. It was decided to carry out surgical treatment of the lesion using LightWalker® from Fotona with application of Er:YAG and Nd:YAG lasers.
Conclusion: After a 12-month follow-up period, the patient is pain free and the lesion has no signs of recurrence. Laser therapy may be considered a successful treatment modality for inflammatory odontogenic cyst.

Aumentos Ósseos em Implantodontia – Capítulo 15
A filosofia de tratamento do nosso grupo é totalmente favorável à realização de reconstruções teciduais (tanto óssea quanto tecido mole), para posterior reabilitação implantossuportada dos pacientes com atrofia severa nos maxilares. No entanto, entendemos que o implantodontista deve conhecer e estar apto a praticar (ou pelo menos a diagnosticar e encaminhar) alternativas de tratamento que também podem beneficiar o paciente.
Aumentos Ósseos em Implantodontia – Capítulo 11
A forma tradicional/clássica de tratamento dos rebordos atróficos é por meio do uso de blocos ósseos autógenos, através dos quais é possível obter bons resultados. No entanto, essa modalidade de tratamento é associada a um maior índice de exposição do enxerto ao meio bucal (principalmente nos caos de defeitos verticais), dificuldade de adaptação do enxerto ao leito recetor (em casos de rebordos irregulares), maior morbidade e maior dificuldade no posicionamento/fixação desses blocos ao nível da crista óssea, o que por vezes não proporciona um resultado homogéneo do rebordo, dificultando a implantação.
