Overview

Other diagnostic studies for ameloblastoma include incisional biopsy. Incisional biopsy is diagnostic of ameloblastoma.

Other Diagnostic Studies

Incisional biopsy is mandatory for all odontogenic tumors unless they are mature odontomes where the procedure is usually impracticable or are very small. It is important to seek any solid tissue to biopsy because a cystic lining which is distended may provide insufficient material for a definitive diagnosis.
