BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Calcifying odontogenic cyst is an uncommon developmental cyst. It accounts for only 1% of jaw cysts and uncommonly occurs with odontoma. Herein, we report a case of calcifying odontogenic cyst, associated with complex odontoma. CASE REPORT: The patient was a 12-year-old girl with complaints of painless swelling in the mandibular first premolar. In radiographic examinat...

They are more appropriately termed hamartomas because of their limited growth potential rather than true neoplasm. Clinically, three types of odontomas are identified in the literature: central (intraosseous) odo...

Odontoameloblastoma (OA) is a very rare mixed odontogenic neoplasm, characterized by the simultaneous occurrence of an ameloblastoma and a compound or complex odontoma in the same tumor mass. To date, less than 50 cases of OA and/or ameloblastic odontoma have been reported in the English dental literature. This neoplasm was called ameloblastic odontoma. The term OA was included in the 1971 WHO ...

We present the unusual case of a large complex odontoma erupting in the maxilla. Odontomas are benign developmental tumours of odontogenic origin. They are characterized by slow growth and nonaggressive behaviour. Complex odontomas, which erupt, are rare. They are usually asymptomatic and are identified on routine radiograph but may present with erosion into the oral cavity with subsequent cell...

Odontomas are nonaggressive, hamartomatous developmental malformations composed of mature tooth substances and may be compound or complex depending on the extent of morphodifferentiation or on their resemblance to normal teeth. Among them, complex odontomas are relatively rare tumors. They are usually asymptomatic in nature. Occasionally, these tumors become large, causing bone expansion follow...

Objectives: This review article is aimed to determine panoramic radiograph images of complex odontoma involving impacted teeth.
 Review: study a scoping consisting English or Indonesian articles in teeth and published 2010 – 2021. The search databases used were PubMed, Science Direct, EbscoHost, Clinical Key with the keyword “(((Complex Odontoma) AND Impacted teeth) radiograph).” selected ...

INTRODUCTION Odontomas are benign odontogenic tumors composed of enamel, dentine, cement and pulp tissue. They are usually clinically asymptomatic, but often associated with tooth eruption disturbances. In exceptional cases the odontoma erupts into the mouth . The present study reports three cases of odontomas erupted into the oral cavity and reviews the literature. CLINICAL CASES The first c...

Odontomas are malformations of the dental tissues and may interfere with the eruption of the associated tooth. Complex composite odontoma (CO) was described as a distinct entity for the first time by Broca in 1866. This lesion takes place due to the developmental disturbances where the dental components are laid down in a disorganized manner, due to failure of normal morphodifferentiation. Very...
