Resumen
RODRIGUES DA SILVA, Weslay et al. Multiple complex odontomas of the mandible: a rare case report and literature review. CES odontol. [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.1, pp.60-69. Epub 19-Oct-2022. ISSN 0120-971X. https://doi.org/10.21615/cesodon.6542.
Odontomas are the most common tumor-like (hamartoma) odontogenic lesions in the gnathic bones. There are two main types: complex odontoma which is composed mainly of amorphous calcification, and compound odontoma which is characterized by irregular tooth-like structures. Odontomas are generally asymptomatic and in most cases involve only one quadrant of the maxilla or mandible. The treatment of choice is surgical removal. The aim of the present study is to report a rare case of multiple complex odontomas affecting the mandible and to review the literature on the clinical and pathological features of these tumors.
