What type of odontoma is mostly found in the posterior with a conglomerate mass?

  1. Compound odontoma

  2. Complex odontoma

  3. CEOT

  4. Gardner's syndrome

The correct answer is: Complex odontoma

Complex odontomas are typically found in the posterior region as a conglomerate mass, meaning that they are made up of multiple disorganized tooth-like structures. This makes option B the most appropriate answer. Option A, Compound odontoma, is typically found in the anterior region and is composed of organized tooth-like structures. Option C, CEOT, is a different type of odontoma that is usually found in the posterior region but is not a conglomerate mass. Option D, Gardner's syndrome, is not an odontoma at all but a hereditary condition that causes multiple tumors to form, including odontomas. However, Gardner's syndrome does not necessarily present with a conglomerate mass in the posterior region.
