Abstract

Odontoma is the most common type of benign odontogenic tumor, and often causes disturbances in the eruption of its associated tooth. This case report documents a twelve -year-old-child with a compound odontoma located in the anterior maxilla, which caused the impaction of the maxillary central incisor. Spontaneous eruption of the involved tooth occurred once the odontoma was surgically removed.
