* It can sometimes cause symptoms such as swelling, dental malocclusion, pain and paresthesia of the affected area.
* It spreads by forming pseudopods in marrow spaces without concomitant resorption of the trabecular bone. As a result, the margins of the tumor are not clearly seen on radiographs or during surgery and the tumor frequently recurs after inadequate surgical removal.
* The appearance of septae on the radiograph usually represents differential resorption of the cortical plate by the tumor and not actual separation of tumor portions. Because of its slow growth, recurrences of ameloblastoma generally present many years and even decades after primary surgery. When treated inadequately, malignant development is a possibility.
