It is the sites of predilection mirror the favored sites if impacted teeth : mandibular third molars, maxillary third molars, and maxillary canines. These cysts are most prevalent in the second to fourth decades. Most cysts are asymmetric and are discovered on routine dental radiographs, but large examples can cause displacement or resorption of adjacent teeth and infection.
