    A rare complex-compound odontoma was diagnosed in a nine-year-old female presenting with a missing incisor. Surgical removal and follow-up confirmed the diagnosis, highlighting this rare dental anomaly.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Pediatric Dentistry

    Background:

    • Odontomas are benign odontogenic tumors, the most common type of odontogenic tumor.
    • Complex-compound odontomas are characterized by a mixture of enamel, dentin, cementum, and pulp tissue, resembling disorganized teeth.

    Observation:

    • A nine-year-old female presented with congenital absence of the left upper central incisor.
    • Persistence of the adjacent lateral incisor and a localized swelling in the anterior maxilla were noted.
    • Clinical examination suggested a developmental anomaly or a retained tooth structure.

    Findings:

    • Surgical intervention revealed a complex-compound odontoma.
    • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a complex-compound (transitional) odontoma.

  • The odontoma was successfully excised, and post-operative recovery was uneventful.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of thorough diagnostic evaluation for dental anomalies in children.
    • Early detection and surgical management of odontomas are crucial for preventing complications and ensuring proper dental development.
    • Understanding the clinical and histopathological features of complex-compound odontomas aids in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
