Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a rare, mixed, benign, odontogenic tumor of significant prevalence in the mandible, with epithelial and mesenchymal components. It usually affects pediatric patients and is associated with teeth, causing a delay in eruption chronology or an alteration in the dental eruption pathway. It is occasionally diagnosed during radiographic evaluations of these patients. The literature is unclear whether it is a distinct pathological entity or a stage of odontoma. As it is benign and has a low recurrence rate, conservative treatment is recommended. The purpose of this paper was to present 2 cases of ameloblastic fibro-odontoma in the mandibles of children.

Odontomas are the most prevalent odontogenic tumors, often classified as hamartomas due to their slow growth and non-aggressive nature. Typically asymptomatic, they can obstruct the eruption of adjacent teeth. While the exact causes of odontomas remain unclear, potential factors include local trauma, infection, growth pressure, and hereditary influences.
