Abstract
Biopsy of tissues remains the most definitive way to classify and therefore manage hard and soft tissue lesions. Often with the procedure, the biopsy itself is diagnostic and serves as management of benign lesions. When evaluating the head and neck, especially the oral cavity, certain biopsy types lend themselves to better use. The aim is to understand proper techniques in execution as well as selection.
