ABSTRACT
Odontomas are developmental anomalies of the dental tissues and may interfere with the eruption of the associated tooth. Since, these lesions are asymptomatic, they are usually detected in routine radiographs only. Early diagnosis, prompt clinical decision making followed by a proper treatment at the right time, results in a favorable prognosis. The present report describes the surgical management of a case of compound odontoma in 11-year-old boy who presented with a complaint of missing tooth in maxillary anterior region. After the lesion was surgically removed under local anesthesia, histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of compound odontoma. The related literature is also reviewed in this article.
