How far do you cut beyond the radiographic lesion for an ameloblastoma?
1-1.5 cm
What type of a ressection do you do for an ameloblastoma?
En bloc resection
True or false… ameloblastomas are malignant and cause parasthesia
False. They are benign and push the IA instead of invading it. Thus, no paraeshtesia
What are the polyostotic types of fibrous dysplasia
Jafe Lichtenstein (cafe au laut)
Mccune Albright (early puberty)
Mausabroad syndrome (cardiac myxomoas)
