Ameloblastoma is a benign, locally aggressive odontogenic tumor that most commonly arises in the posterior mandible. Although typically painless in the early stages, it can cause significant destruction of bone and adjacent structures if untreated. This case presents a 31-year-old male with progressive swelling in the right mandibular body region. Detailed clinical, radiographic, and histopathological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of ameloblastoma. Surgical resection with reconstruction was performed, followed by restorative and maintenance care. This report emphasizes the classic but often overlooked features of ameloblastoma and underscores the importance of timely diagnosis and multidisciplinary management.
