Abstract

 The most common carcinoma affecting the oral mucosa is oral squamous cell carcinoma, with prevalence seen in the age groups above 50 years in males and with rare occurrence below 30 years. Studies reveal approximately 30-40 % of deaths in oral squamous cell carcinoma occur due to various tissue abuse habits. The present case defines a classic incident of oral squamous cell carcinoma concerning the alveolo-buccal sulcus in a female having 52 years of age.
