Abstract
This case report describes a rare benign tumour, which presented as discrete areas of gingival hyperplasia affecting both the mandible and the maxilla. Surgical excision of the lesions was carried out under local anaesthetic. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of oral myofibromatosis. The condition responded to surgical excision and appears to have limited growth potential. It affects a wide spectrum of ages and can be alarming due to rapid enlargement and ulceration, so careful diagnosis is important to avoid unnecessary aggressive treatment.
