PERIPHERAL OSSIFYING FIBROMA: A CASE REPORT

Öz

This manuscript aims to describe the clinical, radiological and histopathological properties of a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) located in a 41 years old woman’s maxillary vestibular gingiva. Because the clinical and radiological features of POF are non-specific, for an accurate diagnosis, histopathological examination of the surgical specimen is mandatory.

Keywords: Peripheral ossifying fibroma, fibroma, giant cell granuloma
