Odontomas are developmental malformations of dental tissues, and they may interfere with the eruption of the associated tooth. Odontomas have limited growth potential, and their occurrence in the primary dentition is uncommon. This article describes a case of a large complex odontoma in a 5.2-year-old boy that prevented eruption of the mandibular left lateral incisor. The odontoma was surgically removed, routine follow-up was done for more than a year, and no recurrence was seen.
牙瘤是牙组织的发育畸形，可能会干扰相关牙齿的萌出。牙瘤的生长潜力有限，在乳牙列中发生较为罕见。本文描述了一例5.2岁男孩的大型复合牙瘤病例，该牙瘤阻碍了下颌左侧乳切牙的萌出。通过手术切除了牙瘤，进行了一年多的常规随访，未见复发。
