Odontomas can be detected as complex or compound variants and they rarely show the histologic characteristics of both types together. The tumor commonly associated with malocclusion, eruption disturbances and pathological anomalies, but they seldom cause bony expansion. Early detection and management of odontoma with multidisciplinary approach pose an important role to prevent disturbances associated with this common odontogenic tumor. Here we report a rare case of an odontoma which show the features of both complex and compound types and also cause bony expansion, eruption failure in an 8-year-old boy.

ABSTRACTAdenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a rare tumor comprising only 3% of all odontogenic tumors. It is a benign, encapsulated, noninvasive, nonaggressive, slowly growing odontogenic lesion associated with an impacted tooth. These lesions may go unnoticed for years. The usual treatment is enucleation and curettage, and the lesion does not recur. Here, we present a rare case of an unusually large aggressive AOT of maxilla associated with impacted third molar. The authors also discuss clinical, radiographic, histopathologic, and therapeutic features of the case. Subtotal maxillectomy with simultaneous reconstruction of the surgical defect with temporalis myofascial flap was planned and carried out.

Odontoma is defined as calcifying benign odontogenic tumor composed of various tooth tissues such as enamel, dentin, pulp, and cementum and representing the second most common odontogenic tumor of the jaw bones. These lesions are often associated with impacted permanent teeth. They are usually small, asymptomatic and diagnosed after routine radiographic examination. The aim of this work was to report a case of a compound odontoma in the anterior maxilla of a 35-year-old woman, which was causing the impaction of the maxillary left central incisor. A removal of the tumor was planned. An orthodontic approach was proposed as a surgical procedure for orthodontic traction of the impacted tooth. After 12 months, the clinical and radiographic examination revealed the eruption of the impacted incisor. The recommended treatment of compound odontoma is the complete removal of the tumour. An orthodontic approach may be indicated to correct any malocclusion or to perform the traction of the tooth, due to a possible impaction.

ABSTRACT The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) has recently been reclassified by the WHO (2005), as keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) based on clinical, histological and immunohistochemical parameters. KCOT more commonly occurs in the mandible and cases involving the maxilla are infrequent. We report an unusual and rare case of a KCOT of the maxilla in a middle-aged individual with extensive involvement and displacement of the maxillary third molar to the zygomatic region. A discussion of the parameters involved in the reclassification of the lesion as a tumor is presented alongwith a review of literature.
