This observational study aimed to evaluate the relationship between odontogenic lesions and root dilaceration in impacted teeth.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The sample size consisted of 22 impacted teeth divided into two groups: with odontogenic lesions (Group IwL) and without lesions (Group IwoL). Pre- and post-treatment radiographs, taken before and after conservative surgical or orthodontic-surgical management of impacted teeth, were used to assess the occurrence of dilaceration in both groups. Fisher's exact text was applied to compare the prevalence of dilaceration in both groups. In order to analyze the influence of each additional variable on dilaceration, a multivariate analysis was performed through logistic regression.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Root dilaceration was significantly more common in Group IwL (72.73%) than in Group IwoL (18.18%) (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.030).
