Surgical Periodontal Management of Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma: A Series of Three Cases

Figure 1

Clinical case #1. The lesion developed on a buccal aspect between teeth #8 and 9 with no apparent radiographic changes (a–e). The lesion was excised using a scalpel blade (f–h). Postoperative healing at 1 week revealed no complications (i–k). The patient did not present for further follow-up appointments. Tissue samples harvested during biopsy (l, m) were submitted for histological analysis to institutional oral pathology facilities, and histopathologic findings were found to be pathognomonic in the diagnosis of POF (n, o).
