    This document discusses the adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT), a benign odontogenic tumor that usually occurs in young patients around unerupted anterior teeth. It presents as a well-defined radiolucency with faint calcifications that can be mistaken for a dentigerous cyst. Histologically, it is characterized by epithelial cells arranged in duct-like structures, rosette formations, and hyaline rings surrounded by odontogenic epithelium and connective tissue. Treatment involves simple enucleation with no recurrences.
