Peripheral fibroma with calcification--a case report.
A female patient aged 10 years reported with an intra oral swelling on the labial aspect of 32 & 33, appearing to originate from the marginal gingiva & interdental papilla. The swelling was pedunculated, mobile, non-tender, firm in consistency with an irregular surface. The colour of the gingiva was normal with slight ulceration. The swelling was excised & diagnosed histopathologically as peripheral cementifying/ossifying fibroma.
