Erupted compound odontoma in patient with seizures: a case report

Erupted odontomas are rare in the oral cavity. During the intraoral examination of a 17-year-old girl in investigation of Dravet syndrome, psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, and psychotic disorder, an enamel-like tissue exposed in gingiva was identified. The lesion size was around 2 mm, localized between the right permanent mandibular lateral incisor and canine teeth. Periapical radiography revealed a radiopaque image of irregular tooth-like structures, suggesting the presence of an erupted compound odontoma.
