World Health Organization (WHO) in 2005 currently reclassify the odontogenic tumor into a new classification. The epidemiology of the odontogenic tumor in Indonesia has been not widely studied yet. This study describes the epidemiology and clinical presentations of odontogenic tumors in Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital in 4years period. Materials and methods: Patients' medical records from 2012 to 2015 were retrieve. All patients with odontogenic tumors diagnosis were collected. Patients' data then grouped according to age, gender, location of tumor, educational level, occupation, diagnosis, and treatment patients.
