Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Reduction in Cyst Size
Time Frame: 6 months
Cyst volume will be measured using CBCT and 3D Slicer segmentation at baseline and 6 months after marsupialization. Percentage reduction in cyst size will be calculated.
6 months
Patient Satisfaction
Time Frame: Time Frame: 6 months
Patient satisfaction will be assessed using a validated questionnaire (e.g., 3-point Likert scale) at 6 months.
Time Frame: 6 months
Occurrence of Complications
Time Frame: Time Frame: 6 months
The presence of postoperative complications (infection, device displacement, or soft tissue overgrowth) will be recorded clinically at follow-up visits.
Time Frame: 6 months
