RESUMO
Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor [AOT] is an uncommon benign odontogenic lesion that affects young patients, with female predominance, mainly in second decade, representing approximately 3% of all odontogenic tumors. It is of interest that in about 74% of cases, this tumor is associated with an unerupted tooth, and in over two third of cases associated with maxillary [65%] or mandibular canine [35%]. Very rarely the lesion occurs without any impacted tooth.
