“…They involve the mandible more frequently than the maxilla with the sites of greatest predilection being the lingual aspect of the body, the angle, and the inferior border of the mandible. 4 In the general population, osteomas account for only 4% of all benign oro-facial tumors. The percentage of osteoma in one research with familial adenomatous polyposis syndromes ranged from 57 to 82.…”

Few examples of osteomas of the facial bones have been documented in the literature making them a rare condition. When found in the craniofacial skeleton, osteomas are benign, slow-growing osteogenic tumors of the bone that are distinguished by the growth of compact or cancellous bone. The case report in this article describes a peripheral osteoma near the angle of the mandible which was diagnosed incidentally by the cone beam computed tomography scan. We report a rare case of a solitary periosteal osteoma on the buccal aspect of the angle of the mandible in a 20-year-old man and also highlight the importance of advanced imaging modality in the diagnosis of bony lesions of craniofacial region.
