Osteogenic sarcoma is the most common malignant tumor of bone cells, occurring in 1 of every 100,000 people.1 Approximately 7% of osteogenic sarcomas occur in the head and neck, and patients present in the third and fourth decades of age.1 Lesions of the mandible and maxilla are usually noted as bony, hard swellings of the buccal and lingual cortices and are often associated with separation of the teeth.1 Some lesions are exophytic hard nodules on the attached gingiva, appearing as soft tissue epulides.
