title: Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma.
abstract: Ameloblastic fibro-odontoma is a benign, mixed odontogenic tumor most commonly encountered in the mandible of children or teenagers. Treatment of AFO is conservative and requires a long-term follow-up. Although some authors believe that ameloblastic fibroma, ameloblastic fibro-odontoma, and odontomas are extensions of the same disease process, they should be regarded as separate disease entities.
