Abstract

Ameloblastoma, a benign yet locally aggressive odontogenic tumor poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This review intends to present a synopsis of human ameloblastoma's different aspects, including its pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnostic modalities, treatment strategies, and emerging research avenues from previously reported articles. By analyzing existing literature and clinical insights, this manuscript improved the understanding and facilitated optimal management of ameloblastoma,  the complex pathology.
