At present time odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumors. They are hamartomas, composed of
epithelial odontogenic and mesenchymal cells, presenting dental tissue in their structure. A literature review
followed by a case report are presented. The case report presents a compound odontoma in the inferior maxillary of
a 13-year-old patient, associated with the inclusion of the second right inferior molar (4.7). The exeresis followed by
the biopsy of the tumor were performed to confirm the clinical diagnosis.
