There are three forms of ameloblastomas, namely, multicystic, peripheral and unicystic tumors.
The unicystic ameloblastoma (UA) is a less encountered variant of the ameloblastoma. It appears more frequently in the second or third decade with no sexual or racial predilection. It is almost exclusively encountered asymptomatically in the posterior mandible.
The clinical and radiological simulation of an UA with mandibular cyst often leads to simple enucleation of lesion.
