Adenomatoid odontogenic tumors (AOTs) are an uncommon benign odontogenic tumor. Both central and peripheral forms occur. Radiographically, the central variants are comprised of a follicular type (those associated with the crown of an embedded tooth) and an extrafollicular type (those with no embedded tooth). A review of the literature showed that only 3 cases of an association between AOT and unerupted primary teeth have been published. The purpose of this paper was to report a rare case of adenomatoid odontogenic tumor associated with an unerupted primary first molar in a 7-year-old boy.
