Abstrakt: This article, titled "Use of Modified Acrylic Stent in the Management of Radicular Cyst in Primary Dentition: Images in Medicine," discusses the case of a nine-year-old female patient who presented with pain in the lower left back tooth region. The patient had facial asymmetry and a swelling in the lower border of the mandible. Radiographic examinations revealed a well-defined radiolucency associated with an impacted tooth. The authors used a modified acrylic stent as a decompression device and space maintainer during treatment. The article concludes that the modified stent was effective in maintaining the patency of the cystic lesion and reducing the need for frequent follow-ups. [Extracted from the article]
