We report a case of botryoid odontogenic cyst of the anterior maxilla. A 49-year-old woman with localized swelling in the anterior maxillary gingiva was referred to our department for consultation. Orthopantomography and CT revealed a well-demarcated intraosseous unilocular cystic lesion in the right anterior maxilla, separated from the central embedded supernumerary tooth. A cystectomy was performed according to the clinical diagnosis of bone cyst of the upper jaw. Histopathologically, the lesion was diagnosed as a botryoid odontogenic cyst. The postoperative course was uneventful, with no signs of recurrence four years after the surgery.
