Tumoural and cystic lesions are common findings in the daily practice of dental professionals. However, simultaneous lesions are uncommon.
Among tumors of the jaws, odontomas are the most common benign, slow-growing and nonaggressive odontogenic. Some odontomas lead to eruption delay of permanent teeth. On the other hand, dentigerous cysts are benign odontogenic cysts that are associated with the crowns of permanent teeth. Dentigerous cysts surrounding impacted teeth often displace teeth into ectopic positions.
Herein, we report a case of dentigerous cyst, associated with complex odontoma. and an impacted permanent central incisor in the superior maxilla, in a 62 year-old man.
