Sumario:Calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor (CCOT) is a rare lesion accounting for only 2% of all odontogenic cysts and tumors. CCOTs can occur alone or in association with other odontogenic tumors such as odontomas. Pigmented intraosseous odontogenic lesions are rare. Among them, pigmented CCOT is known to occur with greater frequency. Only six cases of combination of pigmentation CCOT associated with odontoma have been reported in the literature. We herein present such a rare case occurring in the maxillary anterior region in a 13-year-old female patient.
