| novel use of Grommet tube | Device | The intervention consisted of performing conventional marsupialization of the odontogenic cyst followed by the novel placement of a ventilation Grommet tube to maintain long-term patency of the surgical window. After administration of local anesthesia, a small bony window was created over the thinnest cortical area of the cyst to expose the cystic cavity. The cyst lining was incised then the tube was placed |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Reduction in Cyst Size | Cyst volume will be measured using CBCT and 3D Slicer segmentation at baseline and 6 months after marsupialization. Percentage reduction in cyst size will be calculated. | 6 months |
| Patient Satisfaction | Patient satisfaction will be assessed using a validated questionnaire (e.g., 3-point Likert scale) at 6 months. | Time Frame: 6 months |
| Occurrence of Complications | The presence of postoperative complications (infection, device displacement, or soft tissue overgrowth) will be recorded clinically at follow-up visits. | Time Frame: 6 months |
