Compound odontomas are mostly found in the anterior region and consist of a collection of dental tissues that resemble normal teeth, such as enamel, dentin, cementum, and pulp. This type of odontoma often presents as a mass with multiple small tooth-like structures. In contrast, complex odontomas are irregular masses of dental tissues without the typical tooth-like structures seen in compound odontomas. Ameloblastic fibromas and adenomatoid odontogenic tumors are different entities with distinct characteristics and locations in the oral cavity, making them less likely options for the scenario described in the question.
