Abstract
Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a relatively uncommon, benign (hamartomatous), noninvasive neoplasm of odontogenic origin with slow but progressive growth. It affects young individuals with a female predominance, mainly occurring in the second decade of life and has a striking tendency to occur in the anterior maxilla. Herewith, we present a rare case report of an unusual case of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor located in the mandibular anterior left region.
