Use of Virtual Surgical Planning as an Adjunct for Enucleation of Multiple Recurrent Odontogenic Keratocysts: Case Report

This case report describes an interesting use of virtual surgical planning to fabricate tooth-borne cutting guides to assist in localization and enucleation of multiple recurrent odontogenic keratocysts close to the inferior alveolar nerve. The 3-dimensional models generated and cutting guides increased the accuracy and precision of the procedure and decreased surgical time and potential patient morbidity.
