After mentioning the etiopathogenetic, clinical and therapeutic characteristics of odontoma, the Authors describe a case of composite odontoma, particularly interesting both for its location in parasymphysial site and for the presence of all the dental elements in the arch corresponding to the hemimandible where the neoplasm is located. Differential diagnosis has been discussed, wishing a wider use of routine x-ray examination, in order to obtain an early detection of this particular neoplasm, which often goes undiscovered for a long time, because of its slow growth.
