{Abstract}: The benign tumor central odontogenic fibroma (COF) accounts for less than 1% of all the existing odontogenic tumors. The mandibular or maxillary cortical plate is seen to show asymptotic diversification. It has been characterized as a benign jaw neoplasm. Radiographically, it primarily manifests as a multilocular radiolucency. Histologically, it comprises fibroblasts and mature collagen fibers. The popular choice for the management of COFs is enucleation, followed by the extraction of associated teeth. COFs have maintained a track record of showing rare chances of recurrence following surgery. COF was detected in a 38-year-old female who had edema in the lower right front tooth region. The lesion was surgically removed, and a histopathological examination was performed. Many case reports of COF have been stated in the literature. This indicates that cases of COF are not a rare appearance.
