Popis: Tooth eruption disturbances associated with developmental odontogenic cysts represent a particular challenge in orthodontic treatment. Early diagnosis, crucial for prompt and effective therapy, is possible with a thorough radiological analysis. Three-dimensional digital images provided by CBCT are indispensable to establish an interdisciplinary orthodontic–surgical treatment plan. The aim of this paper is to present a case of an odontogenic cyst in a nine-year-old male patient. Particular attention is paid to radiological findings, possible therapeutic approaches and potential complications connected with an attempt to improve the alignment of teeth. Orthodontic implications associated with cysts in growing patients are widely described according to clinical observations and literature review.
