Abstract: the calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (ceot) is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm that accounts for approximately 1% of all odontogenic tumors. its origin is controversial as well as its true malignant potential. a case of an advanced ceot associated with an impacted right second molar in the mandible of a young black female patient is presented. computed tomography imaging, radiographic and pathological findings, surgical patterns, gross anatomy of the lesion and the performed treatment are discussed.
