“…Destructive lesions without clear borders might even require surgical resection, marginectomies, or even in some extreme cases maxillectomies/mandibulectomies. Many papers describe possible approaches, with a great correspondence with the shape, size, location, and cortical bone loss, and are focused on [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]:…”

The occurrence and manifestation of each ameloblastic fibro-odontoma (AFO) is quite rare and uncommon. Mentioned odontogenic tumor classification had changed over the years; however, the treatment possibilities for this lesion remain the same. In most cases surgical enucleation is sufficient enough; however, bigger lesions might require bone curettage with sometimes performed bony ostectomy, which is a quite sufficient and effective method of treatment. In the presented case report, a panoramic radiological evaluation indicated an impacted molar tooth surrounded with mixed radiolucent/radiopaque areas. The 10-year-old Caucasian girl was scheduled for an incisional biopsy. The bone cavity in the mandible after tumor removal might be left for spontaneous healing or grafting techniques, depending on the shape and size of the defect. In the presented case report, the usage of PRF/iPRF in the mandibular bone cavity, and healing improved the overall final result.

“…Regardless of the type of uses treatment, re-occurrence is rare [22][23][24][25][26][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36]. The main question should be focused on the type of possible restoration and defect support to ensure adequate healing and bone regeneration.…”

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumours of the maxillary bones, characterised by a slow growth and benign behaviour. They are usually small, asymptomatic and diagnosed after routine radiographic examination. The aim of this study was to report a case of a compound odontoma in the anterior maxilla of a 7-year-old girl, which was causing the impaction of the maxillary right central and lateral incisors, as well as the prolonged retention of the corresponding primary teeth. We also aimed to review the literature about these tumours, since they are not part of the dentist's day-to-day clinical practice. The clinical and radiographic features, the diagnosis and treatment of the case were discussed in this work.
