Intraoral Dermoid Cyst-How Common are they in a Paediatric Population? A Retrospective Case Series

Sanjana Bhalla, Vikas Acharya, Munira Ally, Anna Slovick, Ali Taghi and Jimmy Peng Seng Ng

Oral dermoid cysts are rare especially in the paediatric population. They can rapidly enlarge causing dysphagia and airway compromise. We present a case series of paediatric oral dermoid cysts in our centre over the past 5 years and suggest a predisposition to tongue tie procedures. All our cases required surgical intervention and we suggest that all clinicians consider this important diagnosis when presented with a child with an intraoral swelling.
