The document discusses cysts of the jaws and oral region. It defines a cyst as a fluid or semi-fluid filled cavity lined by epithelium. Cysts are classified as true cysts, which are epithelial lined, or false/pseudocysts without an epithelial lining. Odontogenic cysts are associated with teeth and develop from epithelial cell rests involved in tooth development. Non-odontogenic cysts occur in areas unrelated to teeth. Theories of cyst pathogenesis include proliferation of dormant epithelial cells due to growth factors, central cell death creating a cavity, and growth through osmotic pressure differences.
This seminar consists of various cysts seen in the oral cavity alonh with various classifications and added case repots for better understanding and the various treatment protocols followed for treating various cysts.
DENTIGEROUS CYST- an odontogenic cyst that surrounds the crown of impacted tooth , develops by fluid accumulation between REE(reduced enamel epithelium) and the enamel surface , resulting in a cyst which the crown located within the lumen.

DISSERTATION on NEW DRUG DISCOVERY AND DEVELOPMENT STAGES OF DRUG DISCOVERYNEHA GUPTA
The process of drug discovery and development is a complex and multi-step endeavor aimed at bringing new pharmaceutical drugs to market. It begins with identifying and validating a biological target, such as a protein, gene, or RNA, that is associated with a disease. This step involves understanding the target's role in the disease and confirming that modulating it can have therapeutic effects. The next stage, hit identification, employs high-throughput screening (HTS) and other methods to find compounds that interact with the target. Computational techniques may also be used to identify potential hits from large compound libraries.
Following hit identification, the hits are optimized to improve their efficacy, selectivity, and pharmacokinetic properties, resulting in lead compounds. These leads undergo further refinement to enhance their potency, reduce toxicity, and improve drug-like characteristics, creating drug candidates suitable for preclinical testing. In the preclinical development phase, drug candidates are tested in vitro (in cell cultures) and in vivo (in animal models) to evaluate their safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. Toxicology studies are conducted to assess potential risks.
Before clinical trials can begin, an Investigational New Drug (IND) application must be submitted to regulatory authorities. This application includes data from preclinical studies and plans for clinical trials. Clinical development involves human trials in three phases: Phase I tests the drug's safety and dosage in a small group of healthy volunteers, Phase II assesses the drug's efficacy and side effects in a larger group of patients with the target disease, and Phase III confirms the drug's efficacy and monitors adverse reactions in a large population, often compared to existing treatments.
After successful clinical trials, a New Drug Application (NDA) is submitted to regulatory authorities for approval, including all data from preclinical and clinical studies, as well as proposed labeling and manufacturing information. Regulatory authorities then review the NDA to ensure the drug is safe, effective, and of high quality, potentially requiring additional studies. Finally, after a drug is approved and marketed, it undergoes post-marketing surveillance, which includes continuous monitoring for long-term safety and effectiveness, pharmacovigilance, and reporting of any adverse effects.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Aims;
• The student should have
knowledge of cysts which affect
the jaws and their etiology and
pathogenesis.
3. 3
Objectives;
The student should be able to;
• Classify cysts of the jaws.
• Discuss in detail their etiology and pathogenesis.
• Know the steps that lead to a jaw cyst diagnosis and
to identify these lesions in their earliest stages.
4. 4
A cyst is a pathological fluid
/semifluid filled material enclosed
cavity (Space) within bone or in soft
tissues, generally formed by a
connective tissue wall and lined
wholly or in part by epithelium
(mostly non-keratinized).
7. 7
The cyst's lumen usually contains fluids or semisolid material such as keratin, cellular debris, mucus or
even gaseous contents - which is not created by accumulation of pus.
Cyst lumen
Non-keratinized squamous
epithelial cyst lining
8. 8
Connective tissue wall that forms the cyst is composed of blood vessels and fibroblasts, and
various types of lining epithelium which may be stratified squamous nonkeratinizing
(Keratinized) epithelium, pseudostratified, columnar or cuboidal.
9. 9
The cyst wall may or may not be
infiltrated by chronic inflammatory cells
(Inflamed).
If inflamed can change the morphology
of the cyst with obscuring their
identifying features.
In rare instances intense inflammation
can destroy the entire epithelial lining
allowing the cyst to resolve completely
without any treatment.
10. 10
Some cyst-like lesions, without
epithelial lining, also can be seen in
the maxillo-facial regions.
Epithelial lined spaces are sometimes
known as “True cysts" while those
not lined with epithelium are “False
cysts or Pseudocyst".
12. 12
Two Sources:
“True Cysts”
1. Epithelium left behind from
developing teeth (Odontogenesis).
2. Epithelium left behind from face
and mouth development.
14. 14
1. Cysts are common lesions and cause of swellings of
the jaws.
2. More common in jaws than in any other bone.
3. Clinically important because they are destructive.
4. Mostly behave similarly—they grow slowly and
expansively (Displacing rather than resorbing the
teeth).
5. Usually painless when small but can cause
significant bone loss before presenting clinically.
6. Produce significant signs and symptoms
particularly when they become large or infected.
15. 15
7. Pain due to secondary infection.
8. Noticeable swelling: initally smooth bony
hard lump with normal overlying mucosa,
but as bone thins through resorption and
extends into soft tissues, cyst may show
through as BLUISH FLUCTUANT
SWELLING (COMPRESSIBLE).
9. If a cyst becomes very large it may expand
the jaw's outer limits making intraoral
detection possible.
10. Rarely large enough to cause pathological
fracture.
16. 16
11. Frequently a chance radiographic finding for
most of the oral-facial cysts as they are
located within the jaws.
12. Being composed of soft tissues, jaw cysts
appear as sharply-defined radiolucencies
with smooth radioopaque borders.
13. These single well-demarcated radiolucencies
are "unilocular" lesions.
14. Most unilocular lesions are small, measuring
less than one centimeter in diameter.
17. 17
15. If, however, a cyst is undetected for some
years, it may increase up to ten-fold (> 10
cm.).
16. These large cysts may be unilocular;
however, some may be partitioned --
"multilocular radiolucencies."
17. Cysts arising in soft tissues are more likely to
be discovered on intraoral examination
where they produce a surface swelling.
18. Small jaw cysts are removed easily & rarely
recur; removal of large ones is more difficult,
may recur.
18. 18
19. They differ mainly in relationship to teeth
and radiographic features;
But it is often difficult to distinguish cystic
appearing mandible/maxillary lesions from
one another with radiography.
20. Careful consideration of the patient history
and the location of the lesion within the jaws,
its borders, its internal architecture, and its
effects on adjacent structures generally
makes it possible to narrow the differential
diagnosis.
20. 20
Most cysts of the oral and facial
regions are located within the
jaws, they are either Intraosseous
or Intrabony lesions.
Given the sources of epithelium;
21. 21
Some jaw cysts will be associated
with teeth found in tooth-bearing
areas; these are Odontogenic
Cysts, develop during or after the
formation of teeth.
The others will be found in places
where oral-facial processes fused;
these are Fissural cysts (Non-
odontogenic).
22. 22
A. Odontogenic Cysts based on
Typical Clinical & Radiographic Features;
1. Inflammatory
2. Developmental
24. 24
Odontogenic; Inflammatory;
Result of inflammation;
1. Radicular (Periodontal) cyst
2. Residual cyst
3. Paradental (Inflammatory buccal, or
Mandibular infected buccal) cyst
25. 25
Odontogenic; Developmental;
Unknown origin but are not the
result of an inflammatory reaction;
1. Dentigerous cyst
2. Eruption cyst
3. Odontogenic keratocyst
4. Gingival cyst of the new born
5. Gingival cyst of the adult
6. Lateral periodontal cyst
7. Calcifying odontogenic cyst
8. Glandular odontogenic cyst.
27. 27
Derived from Rests of Malassez;
Comprised of small groups of epithelial
cells found close to the root surface and
are remnants of Hertwig’s epithelial root
sheath.
1. Periapical cyst (Radicular)
2. Residual cyst
28. 28
Remnants of the disintegrated root sheath called epithelial rests can remain for long periods of
time following eruption of the tooth. The first dentin that is formed is called mantle dentin,
while the remaining dentin is called circumpulpal dentin. There is also a small layer interposed
between these two dentin layers of less mineralized dentin called globular dentin.
30. 30
Derived from Reduced Enamel Epithelium;
The reduced dental/Enamel epithelium
covers the crown of the tooth until it erupts.
The histology of the REE varies from the
occlusal surface towards the cervical region.
1. Dentigerous cyst (Eruption cyst)
2. Paradental cyst ???
32. 32
Following the formation of the crown , the enamel organ collapses to form the reduced enamel
epithelium which covers the tooth through eruption. The reduced enamel epithelium consists
of the mature/protective ameloblasts and remnants of the outer layers of the enamel organ.
Numerous capillaries, which had formed to supply oxygen and nutrients to the ameloblasts
following dentin formation, surround the reduced enamel epithelium.
33. 33
Derived from Dental Lamina (Rests of Serres);
1. Odontogenic Keratocyst
2. Lateral periodontal cyst
3. Glandular odontogenic cyst.
4. Gingival cyst of the new born
5. Gingival cyst of the adult.
34. 34
During the fifth week of embryonic development, the oral epithelium thickens along the future
dental arches to form the dental lamina. The dental lamina appears as an epithelial thickening
of the oral epithelium adjacent to a condensation of ectomesenchyme.
35. 35
Unclassified;
1. Paradental cyst → The cystic epithelium
may be derived from the cell rests of
Serres, the cell rests of Malassez, apical
migration of cells of the dental lamina
or reduced enamel epithelium.
2. Calcifying odontogenic cyst….??
44. 44
The etiology and pathogenesis of jaw
cysts simply is not known.
There is very little experimental
evidence that sheds light on their
origin.
This lack of hard evidence doesn't
prevent speculation,
however………..
45. 45
There are two long-standing theories
regarding the formation of the cyst
cavity;
1. The nutritional deficiency theory.
2. The abscess theory → postulates that
the proliferating epithelium surrounds
an abscess formed by tissue necrosis
and lysis, because of the innate nature
of epithelial cells to cover exposed
connective tissue surfaces.
47. 47
1. Jaw cysts arise from epithelium (Main
source) associated with formation of the
teeth, oral cavity, and face.
2. If this epithelium is somehow
stimulated (Possible links to genetic
defects in a tumor suppressor gene)
by inflammation, for example, they
proliferate forming an ever-larger mass.
48. 48
The genesis of true cysts
has been discussed as
occurring in three
stages;
49. 49
During the first phase;
1. Proliferation [hyperplasia] of dormant
epithelial cells, probably under the influence
of growth factors (Epidermal growth factor
& Transforming growth factor) that are
released by various cells residing in the
lesion.
2. As a result the cells in the center of the mass,
being at some distance from their blood
supply, die (their source of nutrition is being
removed).
50. 50
During the second phase;
a) Central cell death (necrosis and
degeneration) produces an epithelium-
lined central cavity surrounded by
viable epithelial cells -- a true cyst is
formed.
51. 51
During the third phase;
a. The cyst grows, but the exact
mechanism has not yet been
adequately clarified……..??

in the lining dominates growth.
56. 56
1. All cysts expand in balloon like fashion
indicating that Internal pressure plays a
major role in their growth.
1. The degradation of the central cells in the
cyst results in an increased osmotic pressure
in comparison to the osmotic pressure of the
surrounding stroma.
2. This gradient draws water into the cavity (to
balance the osmotic pressure), resulting in an
increase in hydrostatic pressure inside the
cyst in comparison to the stroma.
57. 57
4. The volume expansion stretches the epithelial
layer inducing division of the epithelial cells in
order to maintain the intact epithelial lining.
5. The osmotic pressure difference is therefore
maintained through the constant shedding of cells
into the lumen.
6. The surrounding stroma reacts by producing
varying amounts of collagen fibers and
reorganizing them into the so-called cystic capsule.
