Abstract
|
|
|
|
Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) is a rare tumor, accounting for only 0.1% of all odontogenic tumors of the jaw. Clinically, these tumors grow slowly and expand the cortical bone without causing pain. Radiographically, they typically appear as unilocular radiolucent lesions with relatively well-defined linings, although multilocular lesions can also be observed. In some cases, the lesion may lead to root resorption of affected teeth and increased tooth mobility. The standard treatment for COF is surgical excision. However, due to its rarity, the optimal approach regarding affected tooth extraction remains unclear. In this report, we present cases of COF in 58- and 56-year-old females, outlining the diagnostic workup, treatment strategy, and postoperative outcomes, particularly regarding affected tooth extraction. Through this case study, we aim to contribute to the existing literature on COF management and achieve successful treatment outcomes.
