Gingival enlargement, especially reactive hyperplasia lesions such as pyogenic granuloma, peripheral giant cell granuloma, irritational/traumatic fibroma and peripheral ossifying fibroma are frequently encountered in the oral cavity. They are usually of benign nature, rarely presenting with aggressive clinical features.[1] We present in this article a case of peripheral ossifying fibroma originating from an interdental papilla distal to mandibular premolars.
