Odontomas are currently classified as benign mixed epithelial/mesenchymal odontogenic neoplasms which are located within the tooth-bearing regions of the jaws. Despite being considered neoplasms, the clinical characteristics of these lesions are much the same as hamartomatous lesions. Peripheral odontomas are rare entities that are located entirely within the adjacent soft tissue of the mucosa and/or gingiva. Apart from location, peripheral odontomas are morphologically, radiologically and pathologically
indistinguishable from their intraosseous counterparts.
