- Abstract
An Odontoma arises from developing extra-odontogenic epithelial components of the dental lamina giving rise to an extensive group of tissues which are usually arranged in an aberrant manner, comprising of sound enamel, dentin, cementum as well as pulp. A composite odontome on the other hand has well organized dental tissues making the lesion resemble and have more tooth-like structures. Dentigerous cyst may also sometimes arise in association with such odontomas having a more aggressive behaviour as well as recurrence, hence requiring an accurate histopathological diagnosis, treatment modalities and restablishment of its prognostic potential. This article highlights two case reports of dentigerous cyst arising from complex and composite odontomes.
