Understanding Nasopalatine Duct Cysts Insights from Ten Clinical Cases
Introduction Nasopalatine duct cysts (NPDCs), the most common non-odontogenic cysts in the oral cavity, often go unnoticed due to their asymptomatic nature. These developmental cysts, located in the midline of the anterior maxilla, can mimic other periapical pathologies, leading to misdiagnosis and improper treatment. A recent clinical review by Istanbul University’s Department of Oral and…
