Abstract：
Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is a reactive overgrowth that most commonly occurs on the gingiva. It is a benign oral soft tissue tumour. It is most commonly found on the anterior maxilla and has a female predilection. Most commonly found to occur in the second decade of life. This type of lesion originates from the cells of the periodontal ligament. It is often associated with trauma or local irritants, such as subgingival plaque and calculus, dental appliances and poor-quality dental restorations. This entity requires a proper treatment protocol and a regular follow-up. It can cause significant discomfort and irritation in the oral health if left untreated. The recurrence rate of the lesion varies according to the authors. This case report describes a case of POF in an adult female patient which was treated using surgical excision resulting in an uneventful healing during the post-operative period.
