International Conference on
Maxilla compound odontoma: Case report
Lair Mambrini Furtado
Dentistry of Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil
T
he present paper aims to report the clinical case
of a 12-year-old male patient that went to the
buccomaxillofacial surgery and traumatology service from
Federal University of Uberlândia – Minas Gerais - Brazil,
by his dentist recommendation, seeking for evaluation of
a radiopaque lesion in the upper canine region perceived
during radiographic exams for investigation of prolonged
retention of the permanent tooth. In the anamnesis, drug
allergies were denied and a convulsive episode for over a
year was reported. At the clinical examination, there was
an increase in volume at the site evaluated and there was
no pain symptomatology. After the tomography analysis, it
was possible to detect a predominantly hyperdense image
composed of several denticles in the right premaxilla region.
The indicated treatment was surgical center exertion under
general anesthesia by nasotracheal intubation. Material
was collected for histopathological examination, which
later confirmed the diagnosis of compound odontoma.
Two weeks after surgical removal, the patient was in good
general condition, without complains, with reduced edema
and without phlogistic signs. After four months, tooth 53 was
still present and the patient was instructed to discuss with
orthodontist the possibility of permanent tooth traction.
