Abstract: Nasopalatine duct cyst is considered among commonly occurring non-odontogenic cysts. We are reporting here regarding a patient, who is a 26 year old female with nasopalatine duct cyst. She primarily presented with a swelling in the oral cavity for which total surgical enucleation of the cyst was done. Radiographically, a clearly circumscribed radiolucent area with an inverted pear-shape was noted between the maxillary incisor roots. Cyst wall is fibrocartilaginous. Recurrence rate, post-surgery is usually uncommon.
