AFD is usually associated with delayed eruption of the tooth and shows painless swelling. We present a case of AFD affecting an 8-year-old Japanese girl with a complaint of delayed eruption of her left mandibular second premolar tooth. Intraoral examination did not reveal any sign of pain or swelling in the left mandible. Panoramic radiography revealed a radiolucent and well-circumscribed lesion, which contained radiopaque material at the premolar lesion of the left mandible. The second deciduous molar tooth was unerupted and the second premolar tooth was congenitally lacking. Our provisional diagnoses were odontogenic tumor. The biopsy confirmed AFD. The treatment included total excision of the tumor and the second premolar tooth. No recurrence has been noted during the 2 years of follow-up., Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology, 117(2), pp.e88-e91; 2014}, pages = {e88--e91}, title = {Ameloblastic fibrodentinoma with a congenitally missing second premolar tooth: a case report}, volume = {117}, year = {2014} }
