PERIPHERAL OSSIFYING FIBROMA: A Clinical Case Report
Main Article Content
Keywords
Gingival Overgrowth, Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF), Reactive benign lesion
Abstract
Gingival lesions are a common clinical finding in teenage female patients. Since the location and size of the lesion affect the rarity of these lesions, the site of the lesion's occurrence is crucial. On the other hand, the debate over whether peripheral odontogenic fibroma (POF) or peripheral ossifying fibroma should be diagnosed still exists. The management of a rare case of POF in an adolescent female patient located on the labial side of her maxillary incisors is dealt with in the current case report. The patient was followed up for 5months after her surgical excision.
