“…Compound odontomas display rudimentary dental structures (multiple miniatures of rudimentary teeth), whereas Complex odontomas appear as a disorganized mass of dental tissues [10,14,15]. There are rare cases, reported in dental literature, of odontomas presenting features of both types simultaneously [15,16]. Studies indicate that compound odontomas occur more often in the anterior part of the maxilla, in 67% -81.8% of cases [5,17,18], whereas other researchers report them to have predilection for the anterior region of the mandible (55%).…”

We can found only five reports (4 case report and 1 retrospective study) about the complex-compund odontoma in the English language literature (5,(11)(12)(13)(14). Thus, this report is valuable as it consists an interesting and rare presentation of this common tumor.…”
