*Stratified epithelium resembling squamous epithelium - typically 8-10 cell layers thick - with relatively uniform thickness ("ribbon-like appearance").
*Artefactual separation of epithelium from the basement membrane.

*Odontogenic cyst.
**Orthokeratinized odontogenic cyst (has orthokeratosis instead of parakeratosis).
***Orthokeratosis = keratinized cells no nuclei; parakeratosis = keratinized cell with nuclei.

===Classification===
Location:
#Intra-osseous.
#*Locally aggressive.
#Peripheral.
#*Benign.
 
====Subclassification of intra-osseous type====
Histology:
#Solid/multicystic.
#*More commonly reoccur.
#Unicystic.
#*Unlikely to reoccur.
#*Classically found in younger individuals.

*Stellate reticulum - star-shaped cells, found in a developing tooth.
*Tall columnar cells.
**Palisaded nuclei with reverse polarization.
***Reverse polarization of nuclei = nuclei distant from the basement membrane/nuclei at pole opposite of basement membrane.
***Palisaded nuclei = picket fence appearance; columnar-shaped nuclei with long axis perpendicular to the basement membrane -- '''key feature'''.
**Subnuclear vacuolization.
*+/-Giant cells.
*+/-Subepithelial hyalinization (eosinophilic acellular amorphous material).
**Seen deep to the basement membrane.
*Variable morphology (see below - ''morphology'').

*Plexiform ameloblastoma (does not have prominent palisading).
*Acanthomatous ameloblastoma.
*Desmoplastic ameloblastoma.
*Basaloid ameloblastoma.
