INTRODUCTION Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare, benign, asymptomatic tumor. The term ameloblastic fibro-odontoma was first used by Hooker in 1967 as a separate lesion from ameloblastic odontoma. CASE REPORT This case report describes an eleven years old female with large ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in the right maxillary sinus. CONCLUSION There is a low potential for recurrence after co...

We describe a case of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) associated with odontoma occurring in the posterior mandible of a 32-year-old man. Although calcifications are commonly found in the AOT, the presence of rudimentary dental structures is a very rare phenomenon. Cases with similar aspects have been described as ameloblastic dentinoma, ameloblastic odontoma, adenoameloblastic odontoma and ...

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumors. They are broadly classified in to Compound Odontoma and Complex Odontoma. Among them complex odontoma is a rare tumor. Occasionally this tumor becomes large, causing expansion of bone followed by facial asymmetry. Otherwise these tumors are asymptomatic and are generally diagnosed on radiographic examination. We report a rare case of complex odo...

odontoma.2,3 Compound odontomas consist of tooth-like structures that radiographically appear as opacities. Complex odontomas comprise a mixture of odontogenic tissues without dental organization.2,4 Clinically, three types of odontomas are recognized in the literature: central (intraosseous) odontoma, peripheral (extraosseous or soft tissue) odontoma, and erupted odontoma.2,5 Odontomas are oft...

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is a rare benign mixed odontogenic tumor. It is a slow-growing generally asymptomatic lesion and more prevalent in children and adolescents. This article presents interesting case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma involving anterior maxilla of 15-year-old male patient. Occlusal radiograph showed a large, well-demarcated radiolucency with radiopaque areas and minia...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze clinic and radiologic features of the 69 odontoma cases and present a rare case of erupted compound odontoma in the oral cavity. MATERIAL AND METHODS The 69 cases were analyzed with regard to the following parameters: age, gender, location, associated unerupted teeth, missing teeth, radiological and histopathological features and treatment pr...

Odontoma is a hamartomatous lesion of odontogenic origin involving both epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. Although it is not an uncommon lesion yet in certain conditions it can lead to complications if left untreated. This is a retrospective review of 30 diagnosed odontoma cases from the archives of Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Government Dental College & Hospital, Nagpur, Indi...

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumors. Intraosseous odontome rarely erupt and very few cases have been reported in the literature. Here we are reporting a case of large erupted complex odontoma in the posterior maxilla, associated with an impacted second molar that caused secondary symptoms like pain and swelling. This case is significant as there are very few reports of complex odon...
