An infected dental cyst is typically not cancerous; rather, it is usually a result of an infection related to dental issues, such as tooth decay or periodontal disease. These cysts are often filled with pus and can cause pain and swelling. While the presence of a cyst may raise concerns, most dental cysts are benign and can be treated effectively. However, any unusual growth should be evaluated by a dental professional to rule out malignancy.
