Abstract

The most prevalent type of odontogenic tumours are odontomas, which are typically asymptomatic. This study describes three cases of compound odontomas identified in children as a result of dislodgement or over-retention of primary anterior teeth and/or swelling of the cortical bone. In each of these situations, the lesions were surgically excised. The outcomes obtained show that an early detection of odontomas enables the use of a less expensive and complex treatment and ensures a better prognosis. This article provides in-depth information on the categorization, prevalence, diagnosis, treatment, and epidemiology of odontomas, which interfere with the patterns of tooth eruption and shedding as well as overall occlusion.
