Ameloblastoma is a true neoplasm of odontogenic origin. It is the most common odontogenic neoplasm, and only odontome out numbers it in reported frequency of occurrence. Th is tumor comprises about 1% of tumors and cysts arising in the jaws. It appears most commonly in the third to fi fth decades and with equal frequency between sexes. Ameloblastoma prevalently occurs in the mandibular molar and ramus areas. Th e patients usually present late after the tumor achieved considerable size to cause facial disfi gurement. Here we present a case of follicular ameloblastoma in a 38-year-old female patient who presented with a swelling on the right side of the mandible.
