“…It accounts for approximately 1% of all oral tumours (1). There are many studies that deal with the prevalence and clinico-pathological characteristics of the large number of ameloblastoma and or odontogenic tumour series (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19). However, in Asian populations excluding Japanese and Chinese populations (2)(3)(4)(5), studies that deal with relative frequency or clinico-pathological characteristics of ameloblastomas are sparse.…”
