Adolescent Mandibular Central Odontoameloblastoma: A Rare Case Report

Odontoameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic tumour, characterised by simultaneous occurrence of an ameloblastoma and a compound or complex odontoma in the same tumoral mass. The tumour is seen in first three decades and affects mandible or maxilla equally, commonly found posterior to the canines. The management is similar to unicystic ameloblastoma and odontoma excision. A long term follow up is a must to observe the recurrence. Here we present a rare case of odontoameloblastoma in a 17 year old male, presenting as an asymptomatic anterior mandibular swelling with chief complaint of missing lower front teeth.
