'ŝƌŝƔ: Traumatic fibroma; It is a reactive lesion usually caused by chronic trauma to the oral mucosa. It can occur after a single acute
trauma, or it can develop after repeated milder traumas, chronic inflammation or infection. It typically occurs in areas that are
frequently traumatized, such as the lower lip, the lateral edges of the tongue, and the buccal mucosa.
Vaka: A 39 year old female patient applied to our clinic with the complaint of a mass in the anterior mandible. In the clinical
examination, a hard mass of 4cm*3cm, painless on palpation, was found. No radiographical finding was found. It was observed that
the patient had traumatized the maxillary anterior teeth and mandible anterior gingiva due to malocclusion. The lesion was completely
excised by excisional biopsy and sent to the pathology clinic for histopathological examination. As a result of histopathological
examination, a definite diagnosis of irritation fibroma was made.. The patient was told that his occlusal defect should be corrected and
he was followed up for 1 month and the operation area was completely healed.
