Abstract
Prikazani su rezultati kirurško-ortodontskoga liječenja odontogenih razvojnih cista sa svrhom da se upozori na važnost trajnoga timskog rada ortodonta i oralnoga kirurga u rješavanju svakoga pojedinog slučaja, ma kako se neki od njih činili jednostavnima. Takvom suradnjom moguće je sačuvati retinirane ili impaktirane zube i u slučajevima kad se čini da to neće biti moguće. Primjer liječenja velike folikularne ciste u osmogodišnje djevojčice dokaz je uspješnosti takve suradnje. Autori predstavljaju i suvremene spoznaje o liječenju odontogenih cista, upozoravaju na lokalnu invazivnost odontogene keratociste i najavljuju rezultate uporabe resorbilnoga granulata trikalcijeva fosfata.The results are shown of surgical-orthodontic treatment of developmental odontogenic cysts of the jaws with the purpose of demonstrating the importance of long-term teamwork of the orthodontist and oral surgeon in resolving each individual case, despite the fact that some cases may appear to be simple. Such cooperation enables the preservation of impacted teeth, even in cases when this appears almost impossible. The example presented of treatment of a large follicular cyst in an eight-year old girl is proof of the success of such cooperation. The authors also present contemporary knowledge on the treatment of odontogenic cysts, warn of the local invasive nature of odontogenic keratocysts and show the results of the application of resorptive granular tricalcium phosphate
