Early diagnosis and timely treatment are essential to prevent complications such as bone destruction, infection, tooth displacement, facial swelling, and jaw fractures.
What are Maxillofacial Cysts and Tumors?
Maxillofacial cysts and tumors are abnormal growths that develop in the jaws, oral cavity, facial bones, salivary glands, or surrounding soft tissues. Most jaw cysts and benign tumors grow slowly and may remain painless for years, making regular dental examinations and imaging important for early detection. These lesions may be:
- Odontogenic (originating from tooth-forming tissues)
- Non-odontogenic
- Benign tumors
- Cystic lesions
- Soft tissue tumors
- Bone lesions
Conditions We Treat
At NFSC, we diagnose and surgically manage a wide range of maxillofacial conditions:
- Jaw Cysts - Dentigerous cyst, radicular cyst, residual cyst, odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), and lateral periodontal cyst.
- Benign Jaw Tumors - Ameloblastoma, odontoma, cementoblastoma, ossifying fibroma, central giant cell lesion, and fibrous dysplasia (selected cases).
- Soft Tissue Lesions - Fibroma, mucocele, lipoma, pyogenic granuloma, and salivary gland lesions.
- Bone Lesions - Jaw bone tumors, benign bone growths, and cystic bone defects.
Patients with suspected malignant tumors are appropriately evaluated and referred or managed through a multidisciplinary oncology team when required.
Symptoms of Jaw Cysts & Tumors
Many cysts are discovered incidentally during routine dental imaging before symptoms develop. You should consult a Maxillofacial Surgeon if you experience:
- Persistent facial swelling
- Jaw pain or discomfort
- Swelling inside the mouth
- Loose or displaced teeth
- Delayed tooth eruption
- Difficulty chewing
- Recurrent jaw infections
- Facial asymmetry
- Numbness of the lips or chin

Diagnosis
Accurate diagnosis is essential before planning treatment. Evaluation may include:
- Clinical Examination
- Digital Dental X-rays
- OPG (Orthopantomogram)
- CBCT (Cone Beam CT Scan)
- CT Scan or MRI (when indicated)
- Biopsy and Histopathological Examination
Surgical Treatment Options
Every treatment plan is customized based on the lesion type, size, location, and overall health of the patient. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include:
- Surgical Enucleation of Cysts
- Curettage
- Marsupialization
- Removal of Benign Tumors
- Bone Reconstruction (when required)
- Extraction of Associated Teeth
- Bone Grafting
- Soft Tissue Reconstruction
- Biopsy Procedures
Local Anesthesia or General Anesthesia?
The type of anesthesia depends on the complexity of the procedure. Dr. Nikhil Angre will recommend the safest and most appropriate anesthesia based on your diagnosis and surgical requirements:
- Local Anesthesia - Minor cyst removal, biopsies, and small soft tissue lesions can often be treated comfortably under local anesthesia as daycare procedures.
- General Anesthesia - Large jaw cysts, extensive tumors, multiple lesions, reconstructive surgery, or procedures involving significant bone removal are usually performed under general anesthesia in a hospital setting.
Benefits of Early Surgical Treatment
- Prevents bone destruction
- Preserves healthy teeth
- Reduces the risk of infection
- Prevents recurrence of certain lesions
- Restores jaw function
- Maintains facial symmetry
- Allows early diagnosis of serious conditions
- Improves long-term oral health
Recovery After Surgery
Recovery depends on the size and complexity of the surgery. Patients may experience mild swelling, temporary discomfort, limited mouth opening, a soft diet for a few days, and temporary numbness in selected cases.
Most patients resume normal daily activities within 3–7 days after minor procedures, while larger reconstructive surgeries may require a longer recovery period.
Regular follow-up visits and histopathology review are important to monitor healing and detect any recurrence when necessary.
