Buccal exostoses are benign, broad-based surface masses of the outer or facial aspect of the maxilla and less commonly, the mandible. They begin to develop in early adulthood and may very slowly enlarge over the years. They are painless and self-limiting, but occasionally may become several centimeters across and then contribute to periodontal disease of the adjacent teeth by forcing food during chewing in toward the teeth instead of away from them, as is normally the case. The following paper presents a very rare case of buccal-sided mandibular angle exoxtosis and its management with surgical exploration.
颊侧外生骨疣是上颌骨外侧或面部的良性、基底较宽的表面肿物，较少见于下颌骨。它们在成年早期开始形成，多年来可能会非常缓慢地增大。它们无痛且有自限性，但偶尔可能会长到几厘米宽，然后在咀嚼时将食物挤向相邻牙齿而非正常情况下远离牙齿，从而导致相邻牙齿的牙周疾病。以下论文介绍了一例非常罕见的颊侧下颌角外生骨疣病例及其手术探查治疗。
