A case of peripheral odontogenic fibroma arising in the mandibular premolar region of a teenager.

Peripheral odontogenic fibroma (POdF) is a rare, benign ectomesenchymal tumor. Herein, we report a case of a 15-year-old female patient who developed POdF in the mandible. The lesion was resected along with the periosteum. Histopathological findings revealed a small mass and cord-like epithelium. There was no recurrence 16 months postoperatively.
