      <abstract>
        <p>Juvenile ossifying fibroma is a benign lesion with aggressive local growth. It is similar to an ossifying fibroma, although it is more aggressive and of earlier onset. The tumor mainly occurs in juveniles, majority of the patients being 15 years or younger. Radiologically as well as at surgery, the lesion is well demarcated from its surroundings. In this article, we report a case of juvenile ossifying fibroma of mandibular anterior region extending from canine to canine region with expansion of both buccal and lingual cortical plates with a history of 6-month duration in an 8-year-old girl. The treatment was complete enucleation of the tumor mass and curettage of the bony cavity with primary closure. The patient is on regular follow-up of 2 years with no recurrence.</p>
