A 49-year-old male patient presented to the clinic with a main complaint of a painless swelling of the left mandible that had
been present for more than 14 years. On radiological examination, the patient presented with enlargement of the mandibular

superior displacement of teeth 43-38 with no associated macrodontia noted (Figures 1,2).
