Creator John Sharp (Artist)
DescriptionWatercolour drawing of portion of the right side of the mouth showing a follicular cyst. Of an adult female who had only observed the swelling 3 weeks previously. In the immediate neighbourhood of the tumour the mandible showed little, if any, expansion, yet radiography demonstrated a tooth embedded in the root of the cyst. The cyst is small and translucent and forms a spherical projection from the gum at the junction of the body of the mandible with the right ramus.
