Ameloblastoma is an epithelial odontogenic tumor. Although ameloblastoma is classified as a benign tumor, it is locally invasive with high recurrence rate. It accounts for up to 18 % of all oral and odontogenic tumors. Tetracyclines discovered in 1940s show activity against a wide variety of microorganisms including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Chlamydia, rickettsia, mycoplasmas, and protozoan parasites are also under its spectrum. Mechanism of action of tetracyclines is that it inhibits protein synthesis in bacteria by preventing the association of aminoacyl-tRNA with bacterial ribosome.
