Abstract
Giant cell fibroma is relatively new and rare entity, commonly seen in gingiva. It is a benign non-neoplastic lesion of oral cavity. It manifests clinically as a slow-growing, asymptomatic, sessile or pedunculated mass with a maximum diameter of 0.5 to 1 cm. These lesions commonly occurs in young individuals and have no sex predilection. Histopathological findings of giant cell fibroma show a presence of the stellate fibroblasts with multinucleated giant cells. This report is a case of giant cell fibroma, occuring on the right buccal mucosa in a 14 year old female patient. Surgical excision of the lesion was planned using a diode laser followed by photo-biomodulation. Post surgically healing was satisfactory, with no significant scar tissue formation and follow up showed no recurrence of lesion.
