Purpose: The aim of this study is to identify the demographic information and localizations of patients with odontogenic cysts in our region and to compare these data with the worldwide. Tools and Methods: Although odontogenic cysts make up a significant part of oral pathological lesions, distribution models in various populations have not yet been revealed.  This study was carried out by selecting 100 facts diagnosed with odontogenic cyst from patients applying to the Department of Oral, Dental and Chen Surgery of the Faculty of Dental Medicine of the University of Atatürk between 2017-2018 years, and a histopathological examination was carried out to verify the diagnosis. The demographic information of patients (age and gender) and the location of the injury were recorded and analyzed using statistics that identified the injury. Results and Results: The man-woman ratio in the study population was 1.66: 1. The average age of patients was 31.2 years (3-75 years). 48% of the cysts were found in maxilla and 52% in mandibula. Radicular cyst(56) is a common type and followed by dentigerous cyst(16%), residual cyst(15%), paradental cyst(5%) and odontogenic keratocyst(5%) among other common cysts. Also lateral periodontal cyst(1%) and eruption cyst(2%) were observed in a small number of cases. The distribution model of odontogenic cysts in Erzurum is similar to other parts of the world. The importance of routine tracking and histopathological findings for the exact diagnosis of lesions was emphasized.

Material and Methods: Despite the odontogenic cysts constitute a major part of oral pathological lesions, information about their distribution patterns in different populations has been unclear. This study was carried out by collecting 100 patients with a diagnosis of odontogenic cyst from patients admitted to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Faculty of Dentistry, Ataturk University between 2017-2018 and these were histopathologically re-evaluated to confirm the diagnosis. Demographic information of patients (age and sex) and location of the injury were recorded and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: The male to female ratio was 1.66:1 in study population. The average age of the patients was 31.2 years (range 3-75 years). 48% of cysts were found in maxilla and 52% in mandible. Radicular cyst(%56) was the most common type, followed by dentigerous cyst(%16), residual cyst(%15), paradental cyst(%5) and odontogenic keratocyst(%5). Lateral periodontal cyst(%1) and eruption cyst (%2) were also observed in a limited number of cases. Conclusion: The distribution pattern of odontogenic cysts in Erzurum is relatively similar to that in other parts of the world. The importance of routine follow-up examinations and histopathological findings are for final diagnosis.   Keywords: Odontogenic Cyst, Histopathology, Demographic Factor
