			==Overview==
			A '''composite odontoma''' is a type of [[odontogenic tumor]] that is considered to be a developmental anomaly rather than a true neoplasm. It is composed of dental tissues, including [[enamel]], [[dentin]], [[cementum]], and sometimes [[pulp]] tissue, which are arranged in an irregular pattern. Composite odontomas are the most common type of odontogenic tumors and are usually discovered during routine dental radiographs.

			==Classification==
			Composite odontomas are classified into two main types:

			* '''Compound Odontoma''': This type consists of multiple small tooth-like structures, known as denticles. They are more commonly found in the anterior maxilla.
			* '''Complex Odontoma''': This type consists of a mass of dental tissue that does not resemble a normal tooth. They are more commonly found in the posterior mandible.

			==Epidemiology==
			Composite odontomas are the most common odontogenic tumors, accounting for about 22% of all odontogenic tumors. They are most frequently diagnosed in children and young adults, typically in the second decade of life. There is no significant gender predilection.

			==Etiology==
			The exact cause of composite odontomas is not well understood, but they are believed to result from a developmental anomaly during tooth formation. Genetic factors and environmental influences may play a role in their development.

			==Clinical Presentation==
			Composite odontomas are often asymptomatic and are usually discovered incidentally on routine dental radiographs. When symptoms do occur, they may include:

			* Swelling of the affected area
			* Delayed eruption of permanent teeth
			* Displacement of adjacent teeth

			==Diagnosis==
			The diagnosis of a composite odontoma is primarily based on radiographic findings. On a dental radiograph, a compound odontoma appears as a collection of small, tooth-like structures, while a complex odontoma appears as a radiopaque mass with a radiolucent halo.

			==Differential Diagnosis==
			The differential diagnosis for composite odontomas includes:

			* [[Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma]]
			* [[Odontogenic cyst]]
			* [[Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor]]

			==Treatment==
			The treatment of choice for composite odontomas is surgical removal. This is typically a straightforward procedure, and the prognosis after removal is excellent. There is no tendency for recurrence after complete excision.

			==Prognosis==
			The prognosis for patients with composite odontomas is excellent. Once removed, they do not recur, and any associated symptoms, such as delayed tooth eruption, are usually resolved.

			* [[Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma]]
			* [[Odontogenic cyst]]

'''Composite odontoma''' is a rare defect in humans in which a [[benign tumor]] forms in the mouth, generally as a result of the abnormal growth of a single [[human tooth|tooth]], causing additional teeth to form within the tumor. Most cases have been found in the upper jaw of patients. Unchecked growth of the tumor can make swallowing and eating difficult, and can also lead to grotesque facial swelling.

==Treatment==
In most cases, surgery is required to remove the extra teeth and tumorous tissue. Prior to 2014, the maximum recorded number of teeth removed in such an operation was 37. However, in July 2014 Ashiq Gavai, a 17-year-old boy in India, suffered from an extreme case of composite odontoma in his lower jaw, which required the removal of more than 232 teeth altogether.
