Orofacial cyst

A pathological cavity in the oral region lined by epithelium, often filled with fluid or semi-fluid material.

Odontogenic cyst

Cysts originating from dental tissues, characterized by the presence of epithelial lining.

Pseudocyst

Cysts that lack an epithelial lining.

Epithelial rests of Malassez

Epithelial remnants left behind after tooth development, which can form odontogenic cysts.
