My daughter is 16, she had a lump come up on her lower right jaw. I took her to the dentist and they took an x ray. They found a lesion on her jaw under teeth numbers 28-30, which we found out to be a very large cyst per the oral surgeon. It became infected so the oral surgeon did a I&d the next day, we are having a CT scan next week to see how big it really is. Then go from there to have it removed. I was just wondering if anyone has had to have one removed, and what to expect. Apparently this cyst was on an x ray she had done in 2010 and her dentist missed!! Now she has lost at least two teeth maybe three. How long is recovery??
