“…Odontomas are the most frequent common odontogenic tumors, which constitute about 22% of all these neoplasms 1 - 5 , 10 , 12 , 16 . They are classified as tumor-like malformations (hamartomas) made up of hard and soft dental tissues, enamel, and dentine, with varying amounts of pulp and cement 2 , 3 , 12 .Paul Broca created the term “odontoma” in 1867, and it was first used to designate any odontogenic tumor or tumor-like disorder 2 , 9 , 18 . The terminology of odontoma has changed over time because of new findings, and since 2017, it has been classified by WHO as a group of benign mixed odontogenic tumors constitute of both epithelial and mesenchymal tissues along with ameloblastic fibro-Odontoma, which is thought to be an immature originator of complex Odontoma 3 , 10 , 12 , 15 .…”

“…Regarding WHO classification based on the radiographic features and tumor gross, compound and complex odontomas are described 3 , 10 , 12 , 15 . Mixed odontomas are a form of odontoma that combines the characteristics of a compound and complex odontomas 12 , 19 .…”

“…However, complex odontomas are clumped masses of dentin, enamel, enamel matrix, pulp tissue, and cementum that lack normal organization 2 . The prevalence of compound Odontoma is twofold of the complex type 3 , 7 , 12 . Although odontomas can occur everywhere in the dental arches, the canine and incisor portions of the maxillary arch show more compound odontomas, but the posterior parts, notably the mandible, show the most complex odontomas 4 , 14 , 17 .…”

Odontomas are the most common odontogenic benign tumors categorized as hamartomas. Odontoma is primarily made up of enamel and dentin, although it may also contain cementum and pulp tissue in various forms. It is known for having slow-growth and non-aggressive nature. It is made up of either dental tissues categorized as a complex or a compound odontoma based on radiological and histological characteristics. Complex odontomas are less prevalent among them, and they usually show as a tiny, silent radiopaque mass enclosed by a radiolucent border, seen on routine radiographic examinations. To avoid tooth eruption disturbances and additional clinical problems, odontomas should be managed and surgically removed once they have been detected. The present study describe a rare case of giant complex odontoma in the posterior mandible with an unusual dimension in a 16-year-old Iranian female patient referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial, Mashhad Dental School, Mashhad, Iran, in May 2021. The case was effectively treated with surgical curettage and tumor enucleation, emphasizing the significance of early detection to minimize complications. Additionally, the clinical, radiological, and histopathological aspects and probable surgical treatments were discussed.

Odontomas are the commonly occurring benign tumors of the jaw, which are odontogenic in origin. Lesion originates as the dental components are laid down in a disorganized manner, due to failure of normal morphodifferentiation. They are considered as hamartomatous developmental malformations rather than a true neoplasm. Mostly, these asymptomatic lesions are discovered as an incidental finding. Large odontomas may give rise to local disturbances, such as eruption delay of permanent teeth, asymmetric tooth eruption, malpositioning, displacement, resorption, or occasional devitalization of adjacent teeth. Odontomas may erupt into the mouth and tend to be associated with impacted teeth and other cystic lesions. The odontomas have a tendency to become symptomatic due to local infection such as sinusitis, infected adjacent tooth, and the exposure of tumor to oral environment. The aim of this paper is to elucidate the primary features and treatment of these lesions, depending on published data and individual witness.
