From: A 3-year follow-up clinical study on the preservation for vitality of involved tooth in jaw cysts through an innovative method

Figure 7

A schematic representation of our modified surgical method employed in this study for the treatment of jaw cysts with exposed teeth (red arrows denote focal teeth, red asterisks indicate involved teeth, red dotted lines symbolize incision sites, and black double arrows represent suture placements). Notably, if the root of the involved tooth was not exposed within the odontogenic cyst cavity or for the non-odontogenic cysts (except for keratocyst, ameloblast and glaucoma), complete cyst removal during surgery was deemed adequate.
