Abstract

Irritation fibroma is a reactive lesion of the buccal mucosa that often occurs in line with the occlusal plane due to cheek biting. This lesion may also be seen on the palate, gingiva and lips; however, it mostly occurs in the areas exposed to trauma. This paper reports a case of extensive irritation fibroma on maxillary gingiva in a 36 year old male that was related to palatal margin of left premolars. The lesion was excised by biopsy and was diagnosed as irritation fibroma after histological analysis. Keywords: Fibroma, Gaint Cell Granuloma, Gingiva
