A radicular cyst is a type of epithelial cyst of the jawbone associated with an infection of the tooth root. This is a difficult condition to detect because it develops silently and is often asymptomatic. Accordingly, the risk of complications can seriously affect oral health.

Regular dental checkups can help your dentist find dental problems you may not have noticed. If you don't see your dentist on time, minor conditions that go untreated can become painful and difficult to treat.
