Significant Statistical difference was seen youngers as compared to old age, middle age and children (p<0.05). A Significant Statistical difference was seen between males and females (p<, 0.05). No significant association of HPV-16 was seen in Ameloblastoma any variant however a significant difference was seen with non reactivity of HPV, Ameloblastoma (p>0.05; chi-square = 41.0, degrees of freedom = 1 and probability = 0.000), The presence of HPV may n=be may accounted but some other some other factors may be investigated for the association with ameloblastoma
