Question 9 · LDEK · Cysts of the jaws

  1. A. crepitus when palpating.
  2. B. pain.
  3. C. shimmying.
  4. D. displacement of the teeth in convergence of the crowns.

Hint

Follow the cyst as it expands: the cortical plate thins, then perforates, neighbouring roots move apart, and infection may supervene.
