Abstract

Odontogenic tumors are a group of heterogenous lesions. Among all the tumors Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a benign noninvasive relatively rare which affects younger individuals. In literature it has been considered as hamartoma rather than a true neoplasm because of its limited size, minimal growth and lack of recurrence. Here by we are discussing about a case of Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor and detailed differential diagnosis and radiographic findings and treatment.
