Odontogenic tumors (OT) are heterogenous group of tumors which are derived from
the odontogenic apparatus [1]. These may be comprised of odontogenic epithelium,
ectomesenchyme and/or mesenchymal elements, which also form the basis of their
classification. OT can affect individuals at any age over a wide age range [2]. Over a
period of time, numerous modifications have been made in the nomenclature and
classification of these tumors. World Health Organization (WHO) classification of
head and neck tumors devotes an exclusive chapter to odontogenic tumors and cysts
[3]. With a better understanding in the pathogenesis of these lesions, many changes
have been made in the latest classification [4].
