Odontogenic tumors (OTs) consist of complex heterogeneous lesions that originate from ectomesenchymal and/or epithelial odontogenic tissues and manifest following normal tooth development. They are diverse from hamartomas to malignant tumors with different behavior, histology and even different geographical distribution.[1] Peripheral odontogenic tumors (POT), also referred to as extraosseous or soft tissue odontogenic tumors, manifest the histopathologic characteristics of their central or intraosseous counterparts but arise in the soft tissues of the maxilla or mandible, usually in gingival toothbearing areas.
