Abstract
Cemento Ossifying fîbroma is a benign fîbro-osseous lésion that arises from the periodontal membrane. The periodontal membrane is a layer of fibrous connective tissue surrounding the roots of teeth. It contains multipotential cells that are capable of forming cementum, lamellar bone, and fibrous tissue. These tumours occur in the third and fourth decades of life, with prédilection for women. The mandible is more commonly involved than the maxilla. This article describes a case of Cemento-ossifying fîbroma in a 45-year-old female patient. A histopathological diagnosis of Cemento ossifying fîbroma was made. An accurate diagnosis requires careful clinical, radiological and histological corrélation in order to make an optimal treatment and an excellent outcome.
