According to the current World HealthOrganization classification of odontogenic andmaxillofacial bone tumours from 2017, odontomasbelong to benign mixed epithelial and mesenchymalodontogenic tumours. The main clinical symptom ofan odontoma is improper eruption of secondarydentition. Their presence may cause lesions in thestructure of the dental alveolar process. The study describes a case of the complex odontomaassociated with the impaction of a permanent toothfound in an orthodontically treated 17-year-old boy.The patient underwent enucleation of the lesion, andthere was no recurrence during the follow-up period.
