RESUMEN

Odontomas are one of the slow-growing odontogenic tumors. They are not a true neoplasm and are considered to be hamartoma. Odontomas consist of four distinct tissues, i.e., enamel, dentin, pulp, and cementum. Odontomas develop from fibroepithelial and undifferentiated mesenchymal cells which are essential for the development of the tooth. These are mostly asymptomatic and are incidentally detected on routine radiographic examination. This case report presents a unique case of a composite compound odontoma in an adult patient with flaring of teeth. A 28-year-old male patient reported to the Department of Dentistry for the correction of spacing in the upper front tooth region. Prompt diagnosis and management, including odontoma removal and aesthetic correction, were initiated. This case highlights the possibility of the presence of malformed tooth-like structures associated with flaring of teeth. It also focuses on the need for increased vigilance in individuals undergoing aesthetic correction procedures in the anterior maxillary region.
