title: Odontogenic adenomatoid tumors associated with orthodontic treatment.
abstract: Because of a predilection for occurrence in the anterior jaw in association with an unerupted tooth, the odontogenic adenomatoid tumor (OAT) will sometimes be discovered in the context of an orthodontic procedure to promote and guide eruption of the tooth. Two cases illustrate this situation. Some other lesions that might have a clinical presentation similar to the OAT are named.
