Island Mak - You're right; with a small lesion, an excisional biopsy would be ideal. Many of the lesions we see are on the posterior tongue or on the soft palate. These can be challenging areas for a general dentist (or a prostho like me) to be access, and may be better referred to an oral surgeon or ENT to biopsy.

It is a very nice lecture. However,I'm recently studying a book. I am doubt on that we should do the incisional biopsy when we suspect the lesion is malignant. Please let me know why we cannot do the excisional biopsy although it is a small lesion but we suspect it as a malignant tumor.
