Did your doctor tell you if your Ameloblastoma is malignant? Hopefully it is not. Either way, the procedure you are facing is common here in the Oral Cancer world and there are a number of members on this site that have had the same procedure you are about to have.
You should be able to get some great advise here. The good thing is you are getting the advise before the surgery, which should be very helpful.
