Introduction: Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the oral cavity and one of the most trivial forms of cancer of the head and neck region It arises from dysplastic oral squamous epithelium. By considering the pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma, the smooth and intact surface for this lesion is not usual and almost every time it mimics other inflammatory gingival regions.
Case Presentation: A solitary well defined proliferative growth of normal mucosal color and sessile in nature. Histopathological examination revealed well differentiated oral squamous cell carcinoma.
Conclusion: In this paper, we report an unusual clinical presentation of oral squamous cell carcinoma in buccal mucosa which is very rare.
