title: Cementifying fibroma.
abstract: Cementifying fibroma is considered as a benign, osseous tumour, which arises from the periodontal ligament and is composed of varying amounts of cementum, bone and fibrous tissue. It is very closely related to other fibro-osseous lesions like fibrous dysplasia, cemental periapical dysplasia and other calcifying odontogenic cysts and tumour. We report a case of this entity along with differentiating radiographic features that set it apart from other fibro-osseous lesions.
