Abstract:
A case of calcifying odontogenic cyst associated with compound odontoma in an unerupted primary tooth in a three-year-old patient is reported. Some considerations regarding the age of the patient, differential diagnosis and treatment are discussed. Although the cyst can occur at any age, the majority of cases appear before the fourth decade of life. This malady represents less than 2 percent of all odontogenic tumors and cysts.
