Abstract
A complex odontoma was found at the site corresponding to the apical region of the maxillary right deciduous incisor in an 11-year-old girl. This odontoma caused the abnormal eruption by site of the maxillary right lateral incisor. 1. The diagnosis of a complex odontoma was made histopathologically and scanning electron microscopically. 2. The site of the occurrence of this odontoma was in the maxillary anterior region, which is a rare site for the occurrence of complex odontoma. 3. The maxillary right deciduous lateral incisor was extracted and then the odontoma was enucleated. The application of a sectional arch displaced the maxillary lateral incisor mesially and brough about the eruption of the maxillary right canine. Favorable results have been obtained.
