Odontoma growing in the extraosseous soft tissue is very rare. Only seven cases of peripheral odontoma have been published to date. Observation: A case of peripheral odontoma arising in the mouth floor of a 1 yearold girl is reported. On the basis of the clinical appearance and localization the first suggested diagnosis was lipoma After surgical excision the diagnosis of peripheral odontoma was proposed and confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. Discussion: Extraosseous odontoma are rarely observed. The suspected mechanism is that remnants of odontogenic epithelium entrapped in the oral soft tissues may be a potent source for peripheral odontogenic tumor differentiation. Conclusion: This case of peripheral odontoma occurring in the mouth floor is the first reported in the literature to our knowledge. Possible explanations regarding its origin lie in embryological assumptions
