Study Notes
Ossifying Fibroma and Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia in Maxillofacial Region
- Ossifying Fibromas primarily affect the dentate segment of the mandible and maxilla
- They are slow-growing in adults but aggressive in younger age groups, causing displacement of teeth
- Ossifying Fibromas demonstrate well-delineated or encapsulated cellular fibrous connective tissue with osseous products
- They are more commonly seen in the mandible (77%), especially in the molar region
- The peak age for Ossifying Fibromas is in the 3rd and 4th decades, with a strong female predominance (5:1)
- Radiologically, they appear as well-demarcated, unilocular, and can show a mixed radiolucent/radiopaque appearance
- Ossifying Fibromas can cause bowing of the mandible, thinning of the lower border, and resorption or divergence of roots
- Surgical curettage is a preferred initial treatment option for Ossifying Fibromas, as they can be easily shelled out from the surrounding bone
- The recurrence rate of Ossifying Fibromas is variable and unpredictable
- Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia is a non-neoplastic fibro-osseous lesion occurring in tooth-bearing areas of the jaws
- Cemento-Osseous Dysplasia shares clinical and histological similarities with other fibro-osseous lesions like fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma
- Lesions exhibiting aggressive behavior and recurrence may require resection, and treatment depends on the location, age of the patient, and aggressiveness of the lesion
