Abstract
Hypodontia is the absence of teeth. Calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor is an odontogenic tumor. Regional odontodysplasia is the presentation with abnormal teeth.
A nine-year child presented to the pediatric clinic complaining of multiple missing teeth. All unerupted teeth showed wide pulp, short roots, poor mineralization, thin enamel. A radiolucency surrounded the teeth. Biopsy disclosed calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor. After the surgery, removable partial denture was constructed for rehabilitation.
Complete diagnostic workout for edentulism is recommended; to rule out tumors associated with impactions which need aggressive treatment. Removal partial denture offers functional solution for pediatric patients suffering edentulism.
