Peripheral ossifying fibroma is a relatively uncommon non-neoplastic gingival growth that is considered to be reactive in nature and postulated to appear secondary to irritation or trauma. It usually occurs in young adults with a female predominance and are solitary in nature. We report a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma in a 36-year old female. Various clinical, radiographic and histopathological characteristics along with etiopathogenesis and differential diagnosis are also discussed.
