High recurrence of odontogenic keratocyst and aggressiveness of solid ameloblastoma and malignant odontogenic tumours could be associated with the nuclear translocation of beta catenin. Disparity between CTNNB1 mutation and beta catenin expression within odontogenic lesions suggests alternate routes of beta catenin activation. The review results support the unique localisation of beta catenin as a helpful diagnostic factor in the pathogenesis of odontogenic lesions.
