Dentigerous cysts are benign odontogenic cysts associated with the crowns of permanent teeth. They rarely cause enlargement and displacement of associated teeth. Here, we present a case of an impacted mandibular second premolar associated with a large dentigerous cyst managed conservatively with a one and half year radiographic follow-up.
