An enigmatic ectopic eruption of odontoma

Odontomas are benign non-aggressive odontogenic tumors and are most commonly regarded to be intraosseous lesions of jaw bones. A facial extraoral peripheral odontoma with an intriguing ectopic appearance is uncommon. A visual, radiographic, and histological confirmation of complex odontoma facilitates the treatment of surgical excision, which inhibits the creation of extraoral fistula and preserves esthetics.
