High frequency of stromal myofibroblasts in odontogenic keratocyst associated with an impacted tooth.

The article focuses on evaluating the high frequency of stromal myofibroblasts in odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) associated with an impacted tooth compared to other odontogenic cysts and pericoronal follicles (PFs). It highlights that OKCs associated with impacted teeth (OKC-a) exhibit a significantly higher number of α-SMA positive cells than those not associated with impacted teeth (OKC-na) and dentigerous cysts (DCs).
