  • Title: Peripheral Ossifying fibroma: a clinical report.
    Author: Nazareth B, Arya H, Mohanty R.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2012 Sep; 40(9):749-51. PubMed ID: 23097830.
    Abstract:
    Most localized growths on the gingiva are considered to be reactive rather than neoplastic in nature. The authors describe a 20-year-old male patient with a peripheral ossifying fibroma in the maxilla exhibiting significant size with the disease duration of one year. The signs of recurrence in spite of thorough excision a debridement exposed the need for further study of the causes of recurrence. Clinical, radiographical, and histological characteristics are discussed.
