Ameloblastomas are rare tumors that arises from the odontogenic epithelium. Although benign and slow growing, an extensive lesion may cause airway obstruction, making bag-mask ventilation and intubation a significant challenge. Here, we present a 54-year-old male in respiratory distress with an 18x15x13 cm submandibular mass causing airway compromise. The tumor was extensive, occupying most of the oral cavity. Unable to perform direct laryngoscopy because of the tumor burden, we performed an awake nasal fiberoptic intubation to secure the airway. Successful intubation was achieved as well as subsequently tracheostomy. We subsequently provide a discussion on associated challenges and management options for patients with ameloblastomas.

Odontogenic tumours of the maxillofacial region presents with a large number of histologic patterns and are derived from the primordial tooth forming tissues. They can occur most commonly in mandible and maxilla. The recent WHO classification helps in developing the appropriate treatment plan and categorizing the tumours. The present chapter deals with various benign odontogenic tumours with their clinical presentation and management in detail, based on clinical scenarios.

The jaws are complicated structures in anatomy that house many different tissues. Embedded within these tissues lie the remains of tooth development that sometimes results in pathological conditions. Odontogenic tumors with benign epithelial characterizations constitute a particular group developing from cells of epithelium involved in tooth formation. Although being usually slow growing and non-aggressive, these lesions could be associated with considerable problems due to their location or capacity for expansion.This article explores the clinical challenges associated with diagnosing benign epithelial odontogenic tumors. Also, this paper looks into the specificities of four most common types such as ameloblastoma, adenomatoid odontogenic tumor, squamous odontogenic tumour and calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumour. The characteristic signs, symptoms and radiographic presentations as well as histological profiles at each type may enable clinicians to improve their diagnostic accuracy leading to appropriate management directions. Therefore, it is important to intervene early before complications occur so as to ensure favorable patient outcomes from this ailment that can manifest either on soft or even hard tissue surfaces.
