ABSTRACT

Cemento-osseous dysplasia (COD) is a non-neoplastic process usually confined to the toothbearing areas of the jaws or edentulous alveolar processes. It is mostly seen in women during the third and fourth decades of life. The mandible is the most common location in 70% of cases in the premolar-molar region. This case report presents a case of cemento-ossifying fibroma with clinical features and radiographic features in a 23-year-old female patient.

ABSTRACT

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumours. They are usually asymptomatic and are often discovered during routine radiography. Compound odontomas are regularly calcified  tissue that bear similarity to teeth or appear as a collection of small teeth.  We report a rare case of compound odontoma in the mandible of an adult patient with clinical and radiological features and a review of the literature.
