Abstract
Fibro-osseous lesions of the jaws form a group of conditions, which are remarkable for their clinicopathological similarities. The etiology and pathogenesis of fibro-osseous lesions remain a subject of investigation. On occasions clinician may find himself in the position of being the arbiter in the face of equivocal histological evidence. Some pathologists use the same terminology for apparently quite dissimilar lesions, and seemingly others to render the same diagnosis use variable histologic criteria. By analyzing the clinical, radiographic, gross/surgical and histological features of all lesions coded as fibro-osseous lesions we should be able to separate a clinicopathologic entity. Peripheral cementifying fibroma is a reactive gingival overgrowth occurring frequently in the anterior maxilla thought to arise from the periodontal ligament. It is more common in children and young adults. It appears that ossifying fibroma occurs over a wide age range with the greatest number of cases encountered during the second and third decade of life. Trauma or local irritation such as dental calculus, ill fitting denture appliances and faulty restoration are known to precipitate the development of this lesion. We report a case of recurring peripheral cementifying fibroma in the maxillary anterior region of 15 year old male patient.
