    Abstract:
    True neoplasms are rarely localised to the periodontium. However, early recognition and diagnosis of neoplastic lesions resides within the realm of responsibility of the dentist. In recent years, a number of odontogenic tumors has been described characterized by an occurrence on the gingiva or in the intrabony part of the periodontium. One such neoplasm, the squamous odontogenic tumor (SOT) originally described 20 years ago is now a well-recognized entity localized to the periodontium, be it in the periodontal ligament or in the gingivae. A review of 36 acceptable cases of this tumor published sofar, forms the basis of the present paper.
