Gestant Composite Odontomes Gestant conijiosite odontomes are those com-posite odontomes in which a denticle is containedwithin, or surrounded by, the walls of a tooth. These odontomes have been recognized byseveral observers. Ai\ mvestigation into theirmode of development was made by JoseiJhArkovy (2); he speaks of them as odontomainterum . The tooth may or may not presentan external deformity, but the normal form isusually altered in such a manner as to sug-gest an irregular arrangement of the Fig. 984.—This specimen illustrates the gradationbetween an odontome and a malformed section the tissues will be found to be derangedin the case of an odontome, but if normally ar-ranged and only deformed externally it shouldbe regarded as a malformed tooth.
