    Author: Orsini G, Fioroni M, Rubini C, Piattelli A.
    Journal: J Periodontol; 2000 Jul; 71(7):1174-6. PubMed ID: 10960026.
    Abstract:
    Peripheral ameloblastoma (PA) is a rare odontogenic tumor most common in elderly patients. They are usually solitary; red or pink granular, nodular, or papillary lesions; up to 1.5 cm in diameter; and either not resorb bone or produce a shallow erosion. Peripheral ameloblastoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue lumps on the gingiva or edentulous alveolus.
