An ameloblastoma is a benign, yet locally aggressive odontogenic tumour. The vast majority (80%) of ameloblastomas arise in the mandible, and unicystic ameloblastomas are commonly found in relation to an unerupted lower third molar. We present the case of a 39-year-old patient with an incidental finding of an enlarged dental follicle around an unerupted lower third molar that progressed to an extensive unicystic ameloblastoma. This ameloblastoma was decompressed and marsupialized before enucleation to reduce the risk of pathological fracture due to the extensive size of the tumour. CPD/Clinical Relevance: The case is relevant to general dental practitioners when considering monitoring dental follicles of unerupted teeth because the enlarged dental follicle described progressed to an extensive odontogenic tumour.

Background: Odontogenic maxillary cysts and tumours originate from the tooth root and have traditionally been treated through an intraoral approach. Here, we report the efficacy and utility of endoscopic modified medial maxillectomy (EMMM) for the treatment of odontogenic maxillary cysts and a tumour. Methodology: We undertook EMMM under general anaesthesia in six patients: four had radicular cysts, one had a dentigerous cyst, and one had a keratocystic odontogenic tumour. Results: The cysts and tumours were completely excised and the inferior turbinate and nasolacrimal duct were preserved in all patients. There were no peri- or postoperative complications, and no incidences of recurrence. Conclusion: Endoscopic modified medial maxillectomy appears to be an effective and safe technique for treating odontogenic cysts and tumours.
