Résumé
Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a localized reactive enlargement of the gingiva often associated with the papilla and originate from underneath the periodontium. POF occurs predominantly in females, especially in the anterior maxillary region of young adults. The histopathological examination provides a confirmatory diagnosis of such lesions due to their heterogeneous clinical and radiographic characteristics. This case report describes an atypical presentation of POF in the anterior mandible in an adult male patient. Treatment consisted of complete surgical excision and gingival curettage resulting in uneventful healing during the postoperative follow-up period.
