Complex odontoma, associated with an impacted tooth and a dentigerous cyst is a rare condition, especially in children. The management of such young patients could be difficult, and many aspects must be taken into consideration, like the patient’s collaboration during the procedures and the possibility of nerve damage. In this case report, we describe how to manage these kinds of patients, in order to reduce the risks and improve cooperation, taking advantage of the great benefits of conscious sedation.
