Abstract

Odontomes are the most common type of odontogenic tumors. Odontomes are of two major types i.e, complex and compound odontoma. They are usually asymptomatic and, hence, are seen as accidental findings on a radiograph. They may be associated with an unerupted or delayed eruption of a permanent tooth. Usually, odontomes are diagnosed at an early age. This case report provides a case of compound odontoma causing impaction of the right maxillary central incisor with its clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic features and its management. Case report: Here, a 13-year-old patient reported with unerupted maxillary central incisor on the right side. Clinical examination revealed a firm to hard swelling, and radiographic examination revealed multiple radiopaque toothlike structures in the region of 11. These were removed surgically and histopathologically, confirming the diagnosis of compound odontoma. The maxillary right central incisor was then orthodontically brought to its correct position. The patient was recalled for regular follow-ups. Conclusion: Early and timely diagnosis will help in the treatment of this condition at an early stage and thus reduce complications in tooth eruption and other abnormalities associated with it.
