치아의 맹출지연을 일으키는 여러 원인 중 치아종은 법랑질, 상아질, 치수와 같은 치아를 구성하는 조직을 갖춘 harmartoma로 complex odontoma(복잡 치아종)와 compound odontoma(복합 치아종)로 구분된다. 치아종의 원인에는 외상, 감염, 치아발육상의 장애, 유전적 요인 등을 들 수 있으며, 호발 부위는 상악 전치부와 하악 구치부이다. 이 중 compond odontoma는 악골의 전방부에, complex odontma는 악골의 후방부에 잘 발생하는 경향이 있는데 대부분 악골내에서 발생하지만 드물게 점막을 뚫고 치조골의 상방으로 석회화 된 종괴가 맹출한 형태의 치아종을 erupted odontoma라 한다. erupted odontoma는 매우 드문 질환으로 일반적으로 맹출지연을 일으키지는 않는다. 본 증례는 맹출이 지연된 하악 제 1대구치 치관 상방에 나타난 erupted complex odontoma를 제거 후 치아를 맹출 시키는데 양호한 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.

The author studied clinically and radiologically 55 cases which had been diagnosed as odontoma in SNUDH. The obtained results were as follows: 1. In sex distribution, there was no prevalence in both sexes. And the incidence was the highest in the 2nd decade. (16 patients, 29%) 2. There were 42 cases of compound odontoma (76%) and 13 cases of complex odontoma (24%). In most cases, compound odontoma was located at the anterior portion (34 cases, 81%) and complex odontoma at the posterior portions (9 cases, 69%). 3. There was no apparent clinical symptom in compound odontoma (83%), but in complex odontoma, 80% of case show swelling. 4. The adjacent root resorption was not observed in any case. 5. Five cases radiographically diagnosed as cystic odontoma were not confirmed histopathologically.

The term odontoma, first introduced by Broca, was originally applied to all odontogenic tumors. Related to the clinical and histological differences, 2 groups of odontoma were defined: compound odontoma and complex odontoma. Complex odontoma is more common in the mandible than in the maxilla, usually occuring in the mandibular premolar-molar area. And this consists of small mass of irregularly arranged enamel, dentine, cementum, and connective tissue, but tooth-like structures are not found. In our case, 34 year old man was diagnosed as the complex odontoma of maxillary sinus by the physical exam, Panex, and C.T scan. We sectioned and removed it, and then confirmed the diagnosis histopathologically. Its uncommon location and size made us report that case and review the literature concerned.

An odontoma is a slow growing and nonaggressive odontogenic tumor composed of enamel, dentin, cementum, and pulp tissue. The etiology of odontomas is unknown, although local trauma, infection, and genetic factors have been suggested. Odontomas are classified as compound odontoma or complex. A 20-year retrospective study was performed on 36 odontomas from the files of the Department of Oral Pathology at Chosun University School of Dentistry. Fifty-six percent of the patients were compound odontoma and 44% were complex odontoma. 56 percent of the patients were female and 44% were male. The odontoma is most often diagnosed in the second decade of life, during routine radiographic examination. The usual presenting symptoms are an impacted or and unerupted tooth, a retained primary tooth. Other less frequent signs and symptoms are pain, swelling, suppuration, foul odor, tooth mobility. In our patients were treated by enucleation of the tumor, and related teeth were treated by surgical extraction or orthodontically assisted eruption.

1. Periphelal odontoma는 매우 드문 질환으로 확진을 위해서는 생검이 필수적이다. 2. Peripheral odontoma는 치은의 종창을 동반하며 서서히 성장하는 임상적 특징을 가진다. 3. 골내 치아종과 마찬가지로 peripheral odontoma의 치료로는 완전한 외과적 절제가 추천되고 예후 또한 양호하다.

We investigate the clinical characteristics of odontoma in childhood and adolescence. A retrospective analysis was performed in 105 patients under 15 years old who were diagnosed with odontoma in Kyungpook National University Dental Hospital, the department of pediatric dentistry between 1 January 2008 and 31 December 2013. The ratio of compound odontoma, immature odontoma and complex odontoma were 67.6%, 21.9% and 10.5%, respectively. Odontoma was more prevalent in males and the ratio of males to females was 1.5:1. The age of patients ranged from 3 to 14 years old with an average age of 9.3 years old. The odontoma was more frequently located in the maxilla (73.3%) than in the mandible(26.7%). In 98 cases, it was treated by surgical removal. Among adjacent teeth impacted by odontoma, 26 cases (34.7%) of successional permanent teeth were erupted when only odontoma were removed and 6 cases (8.0%) were erupted when surgical exposure was performed. Orthodontic tractions were performed in 43 cases (57.3%). In conclusion, odontoma could cause complications such as impaction of teeth. If they are found early and treated properly, high eruption success of successional permanent teeth can be obtained. The occurrence frequency of immature odontoma are higher than that of complex odontoma, and they are observed intensively in anterior maxillary teeth. Therefore, it is considered that they are important causes of dental impaction in anterior maxillary teeth.

Odontomas are nonaggressive, hamartomatous developmental malformations composed of mature tooth substances and may be compound or complex depending on the extent of morphodifferentiation or on their resemblance to normal teeth. Among them, complex odontomas are relatively rare tumors. They are usually asymptomatic in nature. Occasionally, these tumors become large, causing bone expansion followed by facial asymmetry. Odontoma eruptions are uncommon, and thus far, very few cases of erupted complex odontomas have been reported in the literature. Here, we report the case of an unusually large, painless, complex odontoma located in the right posterior mandible.

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare benign mixed odontogenic tumor with histologic characteristics of ameloblastic fibroma and complex odontoma. As with ameloblastic fibroma, it may be asymptomatic or found because of painless swelling and delayed eruption of associated tooth. This report presents a case of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in the posterior mandible of a 14-year-old girl and analyses its clinical features and radiographic features on plain X-ray film and CT images. (Korean J Oral Maxillofac Radiol 2005; 35 : 55-8)

The purpose of this study was to obtain information on the clinical and radiographic features of the odontomas in the jaws. For this study, the authors examined and analyzed the clinical records and radiographs of 119 patients who had lesion of odontoma diagnosed by clinical and radiographic examinations, The obtained results were as follows: 1. Odontoma occurred the most frequently in the 2nd decade(45.4％) and occurred more frequently III males (60.5％) than in females(39.5％). 2. The most common clinical symptom was the delayed eruption of the teeth(34.2％). 3. The type of lesions was mainly observed as compound odontoma(80.8％), and internal pattern of the complex odontoma was unevenly radiopaque(73.9％). 4. The compound odontoma frequently occurred in anterior portion of the maxilla(57.7％) and mandible(30,9％), and complex odontoma frequently occurred in anterior portion of maxilla(34.8％) and posterior portion of mandible(30.5％). 5. The effects on adjacent teeth were impaction of teeth(71.7％) and prolonged retention of deciduous teeth (31.7％), 6. The impaction of the teeth occurred in anterior portion of maxilla (44.2％) and mandible ( 19.2％), but root resorption of the adjacent teeth were not seen, 7. The boundary to adjacent structure was well-defined, the lesions appear as radiopaque mass with radiolucent rim.

Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma(AFO) is a rare mixed odontogenic tumor. It is composed of connective tissue characteristic of an ameloblastic fibroma and calcified tissue as a complex or compound odontoma. AFO usually presents itself as an asymptomatic swelling of jaw or failure of tooth eruption. The lesion usually occurs in individual less than 30 years old. The differential diagnosis of this tumor includes odontoma, ameloblastoma, and ameloblastic fibroma. This report describes an ameloblastic fibro-odontoma occurring in maxilla of sixteen-year-old female. The lesion was treated by surgical enucleation and curettage without extraction of the involved canine(#23). This patient has shown no sign of recurrence during postoperative 34 months. So we report our case with review of literatures
