prettygoodwordbuccal (BUHK-uhl) - adj., of, relating to, near, or involving the cheek or the cavity of the mouth.
Context is almost entirely anatomical or dental, but with the rising popularity of buccal fat removal as cosmetic surgery, it's appearing more. Coined in the 1720s from Latin bucca, cheek.
