Dental professionals encountered tumor and cystic lesions in their daily practice. However, a concurrent lesion are quite rare and poses diagnostic challenge. Odontoma are the most common odontogenic tumor of the jaw. Although transformation from cyst to tumor is quite common (orgin of ameloblastoma from a dentigerous cyst) but tumor to cyst is very rare1 . Here, we report a case of a dentigerous cyst associated with odontome and an unerupted tooth in the anterior region of the maxilla.

Odontoma are the most common odontogenic tumor of the jaw. Although transformation from cyst to tumor is quite common (orgin of ameloblastoma from a dentigerous cyst) but tumor to cyst is very rare1 .
