Abstract
We report a case of left maxillary complex odontoma with crown deformation and malposition of impacted wisdom tooth. The patient was a 21-year-old man, who was referred to our hospital by a dental clinic because of a radiopaque lesion of the left-side maxilla on panoramic image. Computed tomography revealed a high-density structure of about 10mm with low-density layer area around the impacted second molar crown and impacted wisdom tooth with crown deformation and malposition in the left side maxilla. The clinical diagnosis was a complex odontoma with impaction of the second molar and wisdom tooth. Surgical extraction of the complex odontoma and impacted wisdom tooth was performed under general anesthesia. The crown form of the extracted wisdom tooth was extremely flat in the direction from the buccal to palatal side. The postoperative course has been uneventful.
