Odontomas are hamartomatous developmental malformations of dental tissues. They are very rarely diagnosed in the primary dentition. The purpose of this paper was to review the literature in relation to odontomas in the primary dentition, and describe the dental management of a child, age 4 years and 8 months, who had a complex odontoma.
