Abstract
Gingival growths are one of the most frequently encountered lesions in the oral cavity. Most of these lesions are innocuous, but some do have malignant potential. Different lesions with similar clinical presentations make it difficult to arrive at a correct diagnosis. One of the infrequently occurring gingival lesions is peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF). Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma (POF) is a focal reactive overgrowth occurring in young adults. Here we report an unusual case of peripheral ossifying fibroma in a 54-year-old woman, who reported with a slow-growing gingival growth. The clinical presentation, radiological, histological features, treatment are discussed briefly. Clinically, the lesion appeared as a nodular swelling on the gingiva. Thus, we proposed the term peripheral ossifying fibroma for this distinct lesion.
