Abstract

A six-year-old boy was seen by his dentist for a tumor mass in the left mandibular region. The panograph

revealed a multilocular radiotransparent lesion extending from the canine to the left mandibular

ascending ramus with well defined borders. After biopsy, the lesion was enucleated via curettage of

the bone bed. The lesion was diagnosed as ameloblastic fibroma. After six months, radiographs

showed that the surgical defect had filled with new bone.
