Abstract
Larger or more deeply invading tumors in the soft tissue are more likely to invade the mandible and show the more aggressive (invasive) form of tumor spread, reducing the options of a more conservative (rim) resection. Tumors tend to enter the mandible at the point of abutment, which in both the dentate and edentulous jaw is often at the junction of the reflected and attached mucosa. A point of tumor entry below the occlusal ridge or gingival crest should be assumed when planning rim or marginal resections of the mandible.
