🔸Ameloblastoma: It is also called adamantinoma. It begins as a central lesion of bone which is slowly destructive but tends to expand the bone rather than perforate it. Teeth in the involved region may be displaced. Radiographically, classic ameloblastoma appears as multilocular cyst-like lesion and gives ‘honeycomb’ or ‘soap bubble’ appearance.
🔸CEOT: It is also known as Pindborg tumour. It presents as small, painless, slowly growing swelling. It appears as a diffuse or well-circumscribed unilocular radiolucent area. Border may be irregular and ill-defined in some cases. Sometimes, radio-opaque, calcifying foci are seen within the radiolucent lesion giving rise to a ‘driven-snow’ appearance.
