摘　　要：According to the WHO histological classification of odontogenic tumours, odontomas originate from odontogenic epithelium and odontogenic ectomesenchyme, with or without hard tissue formation. They are generally classified into two types: complex and compound. Odontomas are usually intraosseous and often associated with delayed eruption of teeth. However, they can be extraosseous and are then referred to as either peripheral complex or compound odontoma. Peripheral odontomas are rare entities. We report a case of an 11 year old boy referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Aarhus University Hospital by the boy’s dentist due to fibrous mass in the marginal gingiva in the anterior lower mandible. Removal of the mass revealed a peripheral complex odontoma and at the final 5-month postoperative inspection there was satisfying healing observed, a small, elevated, hyperplastic fibrous marginal gingiva.According to the WHO histological classification of odontogenic tumours, odontomas originate from odontogenic epithelium and odontogenic ectomesenchyme, with or without hard tissue formation.
