Abstract
Ameloblastoma is the most common among the epithelial odontogenic tumors, but it is still comparatively rare, comprising approximately 1% of tumors and cysts arising from the jaw. It appears most commonly in the third to fifth decades, but it has also been described in children. No gender or racial preference has been noted. More than 80% occur in the mandible, with 70% of these arising in the molar–ramus area.
