Abstract

Odontomas are developmental anomalies resulting from the growth of completely differentiated epithelial and mesenchymal cells that give rise to functional ameloblast and odontoblast. During odontoma development, enamel and dentin can be deposited in such a way that the resulting structures show anatomically similar to normal teeth structures. odontomes were classified according to their developmental origin as epithelial, composite (epithelial and mesodermal), and connective tissues. According to the WHO classification, odontomes can be divided into three groups such as complex, compound, and ameloblastic fibro-odontomes. Compound odontomas commonly occur in the incisor-canine region of the maxilla and complex odontomas are frequently located in the premolar and molar region of both jaws.
