Abstract

Two cases are presented where the odontomas had caused the impaction of the anterior teeth and

required a combined surgical and orthodontic treatment to bring these teeth into the arch. In the first

case a large a complex odontome had caused the impaction of the right central incisor, lateral incisor

and canine. In the second case a compound odontome blocked the eruption pathway of the right

central incisor. It is emphasised that radiographic examination of all pediatric patients that present

clinical evidence of delayed permanent tooth eruption or temporary tooth displacement with or without

a history of previous dental trauma should be performed. Early diagnosis of odontomas allows

adoption of a less complex and less expensive treatment and ensures a better prognosis.
