Introduction:
Odontogenic tumors are lesions that originate from the tooth-producing tissues or their remnants that remain entrapped either within the jawbones or into the adjacent soft tissues. They comprise a range of disorders of growth, from malignant and benign neoplasms, to malformations of dental tissues of self-limited growth.
Aim:
To do a retrospective analysis of 56 cases of odontogenic tumors in oral cavity over a period of 5 years.
Materials And Methods:
Institutional histopathology registry was scrutinized to gather data of cases of odontogenic tumors over a period of 5 years (2020-2024). The information of all the cases was thoroughly reviewed, analyzed, and tabulated.
Results:
A total of 56 cases of odontogenic tumors were found. Males were most commonly affected than females (M > F). The most common site was posterior mandible (molar-ramus) region. We found 19 cases of solid multicystic ameloblastoma (SMA), 22 cases of unicystic ameloblastoma, 5 cases of KCOT, 3 cases each of desmoplastic ameloblastoma and AOT, and 2 each of peripheral ameloblastoma and ameloblastic carcinoma.
Conclusion:
Ameloblastoma was the commonest odontogenic tumor with unicystic variant being 39.28% followed by SMA (33.92%), KCOT (8.92%), AOT (5.35%), and desmoplastic variant (5.35%).

Teeth
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...
