Odontomas are a common type of odontogenic tumors which are regarded as developmental anomalies (hamartomas) rather than a true neoplasm. They occur more commonly in the permanent dentition and are rarely associated with the primary dentition. An odontome comprises of the hard tissues which are laid down in an abnormal pattern. They are considered to be hamartomas rather than neoplasms as they ...

The tumors in which odontogenic differentiation is fully expressed are the odontomas. Odontomas are considered as hamartomas rather than a true neoplasm. These tumors are composed of enamel, dentine, cementum and pulp tissue. It is most commonly associated with the eruption of the teeth. They are usually discovered on routine radiographic examination. In exceptional cases, the odontoma erupts i...

BACKGROUND A compound odontoma is a mixed tumor of odontogenic origin, in which both ectodermal and mesenchymal cells exhibit complete differentiation, resulting in the formation of tooth structures. It occurs with equal frequency in both sexes, and is often initially asymptomatic. CASE REPORT A 7-year-old boy was recently examined in our Department for management of a compound odontoma. Surg...

Introduction: Odontogenictumours cover a wide and diverse spectrum of tumours. Some odontogenictumours have a varied etiopathogenesis and share a presentation very similar to hybrid odontogenictumours. Ameloblastic fibroodontoma is one such Radhika Manoj Bavle1, Makarla Soumya2, K. Paremala2, Hosthor Sreelatha S.3, M. Sudhakara2, Venugopal Reshma3 Affiliations: 1M.D.S, Professor & Head, Departm...

Odontomas are benign tumors containing all the components of the odontogenic tissue. Disturbances in tooth eruption are one of the most common complications associated with odontomas. They are generally asymptomatic and are usually seen in second and third decades of life, rarely seen below 10 years of age. Herewith, we report an unusual occurrence of compound odontoma in a 4-year-old child vis...
