Ameloblastoma: Case Study

treatment decision

Ameloblastoma: Treatment Decision

  • The patient proceeded with a referral this time to Otolaryngologist.
  • The lesion was removed along with #18 and #19 teeth.
  • The lesion was completely removed and a titanium plate was placed to repair and strengthen the mandible due to significant bone loss from the lesion.
  • Long-term radiographic examination is important for recurrence management.
  • The patient has a high rate of recurrence.
  • The lesion was benign so no additional treatment was indicated.

I had an amazing experience with the IGNITEDDS Coaching program. Especially since I am a new hygienist, everything you guys shared was so helpful. It’s evident that you guys prioritize each individual team member of a dental office and do everything you can to make the environment and schedule run as smoothly and efficiently as possible. I learned so much about treatment planning, Dentrix, scheduling, teamwork, and overall ways to continue improving as a new grad. I wish every dental office had the opportunity to complete this program.

IGNITEDDS has been truly transformative for our practice. Within just a few months, our accounts receivable collections increased by $30K, and our operations became far more streamlined. Their clear procedures and policies gave our team structure and confidence, while their step-by-step ownership guidance addressed our specific challenges. Thanks to David and Dawn, we feel more organized, empowered, and aligned than ever before. I highly recommend IGNITEDDS to any practice ready to grow and strengthen its foundation.
