Summary Four cases of ameloblastomas of the maxilla were demonstrated radiographically. 1. Four cases diagnosed as ameloblastoma of the maxilla were presented. 2. Radiographically, three cases were of the unilocular type and one was of the soap-bubble and/or honeycomb type. Teeth divergency was observed in one case and root resorption in two cases. 3. It is relatively easy for the soap-bubble and/or the honeycomb type and the unilocular type with a scalloped margin and root resorption to be interpreted as ameloblastoma of the maxilla. 4. It is difficult to differentiate the unilocular type without the above appearances by radiographic findings alone from other benign tumors and even from cysts of the maxilla, such as the odontogenic keratocyst.
