Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon tumor that arises from the epithelial cells, accounting for only 3-7 % of all odontogenic tumors. It is a harmless, painless, non-invasive, and slow-growing benign lesion, with a frequency of and frequently mistaken for an odontogenic cyst during clinical examination. AOT primarily affects young people, with a higher occurrence in females, and commonly occurs around the crown of unerupted teeth in the second decade of life. This lesion is typically found in the maxillary jaw and is quite rare in the mandibular jaw. It is commonly linked to an impacted canine. AOT often resembles lesions similar to dentigerous cyst or ameloblastoma. AOT has three different types, follicular, extrafollicular, and peripheral. Follicular type is associated with the crown of an unerupted or impacted tooth, and the extrafollicular type, not associated with a tooth. Approximately 73% of central lesions are the follicular type.
