A Precise and Esthetic Approach for The Excision of Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma Under Surgical Microscope- Case Reports

Abstract

Peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) is third most common lesion of all localized hyperplastic lesions. Occurring most frequently in first and second decades of life in the anterior maxillary region which interferes with normal functioning. Since these lesions have high recurrence rate, excision under surgical microscope was planned as it offers greater versatility than conventional techniques by providing a range of magnification. Here we report 2 cases of POF which was excised under surgical microscope to achieve precise excision and enhanced esthetics.
