ABSTRACT
Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma(AFO) is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor. It is composed of connective tissue characteristic of an ameloblastic fibroma and calcified tissue as a complex or compound odontoma. AFO usually presents itself as an asymptomatic swelling of jaw or failure of tooth eruption. The lesion usually occurs in individual less than 30 years old. The differential diagnosis of this tumor includes odontoma, ameloblastoma, and ameloblastic fibroma. This report describes an ameloblastic fibro-odontoma occurring in maxilla of sixteen-year-old female. The lesion was treated by surgical enucleation and curettage without extraction of the involved canine(#23). This patient has shown no sign of recurrence during postoperative 34 months. So we report our case with review of literatures.
