Osteomas are benign osteogenic lesions with very slow growth, which may arise from proliferation of either cancellous or compact bone. In the jaw, these are uncommon lesions. Osteoma usually asymptomatic and it is often detected incidentally on routine radiographic examination or until it causes facial asymmetry or dysfunction. The objective of this article is to present the radiographic features and histological features of one case of osteoma in the buccal and lingual site of the mandibular angle. We report a case of osteoma originating from the buccal and lingual surface of the mandible in a 26 -year-old woman along with a brief review of the literature.
