ABSTRACT
Peripheral cemento-ossifying fibroma (PCOF) is a reactive gingival over growth, occurring
frequently in the maxillary anterior region of teenage and young females. Peripheral cemento-ossifying
fibroma (PCOF) is supposed to be originating from periosteum and/or periodontal ligament. A large
number of factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of PCOF, which includes trauma, local
irritation, calculus and hormonal disturbances. The definitive diagnosis of PCOF is based upon its clinical,
radiological and histological features. Because of the high recurrence rate (8-20%) of PCOF, a close
post-operative follow-up is required. Herewith, we are presenting a case of PCOF in 24-year old female
patient at an uncommon location.
