Peripheral ossifying fibroma is a solitary, benign, reactive gingival overgrowth frequently arising from the interdental papilla. It is commonly seen in second decade in females. It is usually painless and slow growing, commonly seen in the anterior aspects of the jaws. The etiopathogenesis of the peripheral ossifying fibroma is not clearly established and the treatment of the lesion includes complete surgical removal along with the removal of causative factors to prevent recurrence. We report a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma in a young male patient.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 01 No. 02 July’17. Page : 83-85

Cemento-ossifying fibroma is a well-bordered, slow-growing, benign fibro-osseous disease. Although its localization is generally in the mandible, it can be seen in any area of the craniofacial region. Radiology and histopathology help to diagnose the condition. Treatment is based on close observation and/or surgical excision. In this case, we report the case of a 62-year-old male patient who had a large radiological appearance, cemento-ossifying fibroma in the paranasal sinuses.

Reactive Processes

Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a reactive process of the gingiva that develops due to irritation or minor trauma. Females are more affected than males suggesting a hormonal influence. This case report describes a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma in a 48-year-old male patient in 33, 34 regions in contrast to its common occurrence in young females. Histopathological examination is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice to prevent recurrence. One year follow up of the case showed no signs of recurrence. Gingival overgrowth is a common feature of the various types of gingival disease in the oral cavity. Gingival diseases and conditions can be due to genetic disorder, specific infections, inflammatory and immune conditions and lesions, reactive processes, neoplasms, endocrine, nutritional, and metabolic diseases, traumatic lesions and gingival pigmentation.1 Reactive processes are non-neoplastic nodular swellings that develop in response to local irritation or minor trauma. The term epulis is exophytic processes confined to the gingiva.2 Kfir et al. classified epulides into fibrous epulis, peripheral ossifying fibroma, pyogenic granuloma (vascular epulis), peripheral giant cell granuloma (or central).3 Ossifying fibromas in the oral cavity can be classified into central and peripheral type. The central type expands from the medullary cavity of the bone, arising from the endosteum or the periodontal ligament (PDL) adjacent to the root apex. Peripheral type arises from the soft tissues overlying the alveolar process which is contiguous with the periodontal ligament. 4 This article presents a case of POF in a male patient.

ABSTRACT Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a slowly growing benign tumor with a high recurrence rate. It is a common occurrence in the maxilla. A nodular mass, either pedunculated or sessile, usually emanating from the interdental papilla. Complete excision of the lesion, including the periosteum, is important to prevent recurrence. Peripheral ossifying fibroma occurring in the mandible at the age of 50 in the posterior mandible is an occasional entity. This article describes a case of a female patient with a slowly growing pedunculated tumor in the posterior mandible, which was diagnosed as POF.

ABSTRACT Cemento-ossifying fibroma (COF) is a rare neoplasm representing one of the benign fibro-osseous lesions of the jaw. This benign mesenchymal odontogenic lesion occurs more frequently in women than in men. Clinically, these tumors are slow growing with a centrifugal growth pattern. Radiologically, COFs present a number of patterns depending on the degree of mineralization. Histologically, these lesions are characterized by fibrous tissue with islands of bone or cementiform calcifications. We present a case of COF involving mandible in a 35-year-old male patient treated by excision. How to cite this article Bagi MA, Bokhari K, Al Nager M, Basheer SA, Assiri MAM.

Peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma is a gingival overgrowth that occurs most commonly on the gingiva. It is a slow-growing reactive lesion. It is a benign tumor that grows to a considerable size and leads to pathologic migration of the teeth at later stages. It most commonly occurs following a gingival irritation or trauma. These lesions are said to arise from the PDL fibers excision of these lesions along with the periosteum is very important to avoid recurrence. The recurrence rate of peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma has been reported to be 8–20%, so a close postoperative follow-up is required. Here, we are presenting two case of peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma in the mandible.

The Common

Peripheral ossifying fibroma is one of the common reactive oral lesions which accounts for about 9.6% of all gingival lesions. There is a predilection for females in the second to fourth decade of life. Most lesions are less than 2 cm in size, although larger ones occasionally occur. The raised lesion may appear smooth or ulcerated and most often is caused by constant irritation or trauma. The growth-like clinical presentation may lead to misclassification; however, the histologic appearance is quite diagnostic for this lesion. In this case report we are discussing the case of a young male patient with peripheral ossifying fibroma in the mandibular anterior region which was managed by complete surgical excision.

Gingival Graft

The Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma is a benign tumor that develops from a hyperplastic tissue reaction, usually related to traumatic stimulus that are responsible for triggering inflammatory reactions of the connective tissue. Histologically, it is a nodular mass characterized by a dense connective tissue, surrounded by stratified squamous epithelium. Surgical removal in these cases is indicated, and for reconstruction of soft tissue in the region, some periodontal surgical techniques are recommended, such as free gingival grafting. Thus, the present study aims to report a clinical case submitted to the free gingival graft technique for tissue reconstruction after the surgical removal of a fibroma. A total excision of the lesion was performed, later sent to a histopathological report where it was diagnosed as Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma, after the removal of the lesion the region was left with the periosteum exposed and then the free gingival graft was performed to cover the region and promote keratinized gum augmentation. This technique proved to be efficient for reconstruction of soft tissue in the region after surgical removal of the Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma, returning aesthetics, function and periodontal health.

The peripheral ossifying fibroma, a benign gingival overgrowth, occurs mainly in the anterior portion of the maxilla in young adults. The size of the lesion is usually less than 1.5 cm. We report a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma overlying the mandibular alveolar ridge of a 55-year-old female. MR scans showed a large exophytic soft tissue mass overlying mandibular alveolar ridge. The tumor revealed peripheral calcifications with slight erosion of adjacent cortical plate.

Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma

Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a benign localized lesion originating from gingival and alveolar oral mucosa. Its origin can be cells of periodontal ligament. The lesions usually develop in women in their twenties. POF is a complex clinical and histological diagnosis due to its shared characteristics with many other conditions. In this paper, we presented a case of an atypical peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) in the left lateral part of the mandible in a 70-year-old male patient who had two semicircular bridges supported on four implants in the upper and lower jaws. A review of CBCT and orthopedic imaging showed no visible intraosseous changes. Histological analysis revealed the diagnosis of POF. The case in question is interesting, as elaborated on in the discussion section of this paper because POF is usually found in female patients aged between 20 and 30 years.
