Abstract
Ameloblastoma is a tumor of odontogenic epithelium arising from remnants of dental lamina. It is a benign tumor but locally invasive affecting mandible more than maxilla. Ameloblastomas grow into the bone and soft tissues causing facial disfigurement and facial deformities. Treatment is surgical. We present a case report of 60 year old male with swelling in jaw, biopsy revealed ameloblastoma. Anterior segmental mandibulectomy was done and reconstructed with fibular flap which restored both function and aesthetic appearance.
