Sarcoma occurring in oral and maxillofacial is a rare case. Sarcoma of the oral cavity is rare, accounting for around 1% of all malignant oral tumors. These tumors usually proliferate and are aggressive. The report aimed to show the treatment of non-specific inflammation mimicking oral sarcoma. We herein report a patient with a history of a lump in the maxilla. Initially, the size of a pea, painless and gum-colored, and does not bleed easily. It grew up rapidly for four months. The patient planned to be performed existential biopsy by the collaborative Pediatric Surgery and Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery for obturator fitting. The pathology anatomy results from the biopsy show that the lesion was surprisingly a non-specific inflammatory process. After two months, there was bleeding at the maxilla after removing sutures at the obturator, and there was granulation tissue under the obturator. After that, the patient planned to receive excision of granulation tissue and osteotomy with general anesthesia. Because the defect was so vast, reconstruction with a vestibular flap for excellent defect closure was needed. After three weeks from the treatment that had been given to the patient, the control showed a satisfactory result.
