Abstract: Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors are benign, slow-growing, noninvasive tumors with a variety of clinical and histological characteristics. This case report details a unique instance of an adenomatoid odontogenic tumor in a 14-year-old kid who came to our department complaining of swelling in the area of his right maxillary anterior teeth that had been present for 4 months. Clinical examination revealed a 2.5 cm × 2 cm swelling in the right anterior maxilla, involving teeth 12 and 13. A well defined, mixed radiolucent radiopaque lesion with a unilocular appearance was shown by radiographic assessment. The lesion was surgically enucleated, and the impacted teeth 12 and 13 were also removed. Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors, although benign, can be aggressive in nature. Therefore, it is recommended to treat them at the earliest possible stage. It is always advisable to perform an incisional biopsy to differentiate this tumor from other potentially malignant lesions, such as ameloblastoma, to prevent the need for a more radical treatment approach.
