Surgical enucleation of large mandibular odontoma with a continuity resection through an extraoral approach represents the surgical standard treatment of this entity. The present case report describes an alternative minimally invasive technique/approach. This technique may reduce surgical risks of the continuity resection through an extraoral approach (nerve damage, scarring) and can improve the long-term stability of the mandible by bone preservation.
