Demographic data and the site of the lesions were collected. Histopathological diagnoses were categorized into two categories: non\u2010neoplastic lesions (reactive\/inflammatory lesion, cyst, allergic\/immunologic disorders, potentially malignant disorders, infection and others) and neoplastic lesions (benign and malignant tumors). Data were analyzed by appropriate statistics using <jats:sc>stata<\/jats:sc>11.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Of the 76\u2009045 accessioned cases, 11\u2009346 cases (14.92%) were in geriatric patients. The mean age of the patients was 72.98\u2009\u00b1\u20096.25 years. A total of 5010 cases (44.16%) were diagnosed in males, whereas 6336 cases (55.84%) were diagnosed in females. The male\u2010to\u2010female ratio was 0.79:1. Non\u2010neoplastic lesions outnumbered the neoplastic counterpart. The five most prevalent oral lesions in the geriatric population in the present study in descending order of frequency were squamous cell carcinoma, focal fibrous hyperplasia (irritation fibroma), radicular cyst, osteomyelitis and epithelial dysplasia, respectively. The site of predilection was labial\/buccal mucosa, followed by gingiva, mandibular bone, tongue and maxillary bone, respectively.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The geriatric oral lesions from the present study showed a similar trend with studies based on histopathological data, but different from the studies based on clinical data. This study also shed more light on potentially malignant disorders, as well as benign and malignant tumors. <jats:bold>Geriatr Gerontol Int 2016; 16:
