Mandibular cysts were removed by conventional methods of decortication, enucleation, curettage, or marsupialization. The Modified Bone-splitting technique is recommended as a reliable technique for removal of mandibular cysts regarding exposure, feasibility, and safety. This paper presents a cystic lesion involving the mandibular nerve and this modified technique, which was performed as an approach for exposure and excision of a mandibular cyst. Bone cortices were repositioned after radicular cyst enucleation in order to prevent wound dehiscence. Postoperative panorex revealed good healing, with rapid mineralization of the defect and good stability. Recurrence was not recorded and no complication, such as numbness, occurred during the three-year follow-up period.
