    <abstract locale="en_US">Background: Lipoma is a rare benign tumor that overgrows in oral cavity. Its occurrence rate&#xA0;
is about 1-4% with predilection for males rather than females. Lipoma is associated with adipose&#xA0;
tissue and is usually seen in major salivary glands, buccal mucosa, and vestibule. Fifty percent of&#xA0;
lesions are seen in buccal mucosa. The progressive and aggressive growth of these lesions may interfere&#xA0;
with speech and mastication owing to the dimensions and location of the tumor. The lesion&#xA0;
basically affects the individuals of 4th to 5th decades. Lipoma is managed by surgical excision using&#xA0;
scalpel, laser, or electro-cautery.&#xA0;
Case Presentation: This study presents two 63 and 18 years old male patients with lipoma&#xA0;
in their buccal mucosa along with their improved situation following the treatment. The treatment&#xA0;
included surgical excision of the lesion and suturing the surgical area.&#xA0;
Conclusions: The incidence of intraoral lipoma is low and buccal mucosa is the most common&#xA0;
region for the occurrence of oral lipoma. Most clinicians suggested surgical techniques as a certain&#xA0;
treatment.&#xA0;
