Abstract
Background: Fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma are benign pathologies that generally have no painful symptoms, are rare, and affect bone tissue. They produce aesthetic and functional alterations, which is why patients consult. Purpose: To describe the cellular disorders characteristic of fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma, as well as their relationship with clinical forms and other histopathological variables that constitute a challenge for the oral pathologist and the clinician. Description of the cases: Two cases of adult patients, male and female, who attended the Stomatology and Oral Surgery Unit of the University of Cartagena in Colombia, are described. The patients shoed facial, asymptomatic, and unilateral asymmetries that compromised patients’ aesthetics. Clinical, radiographic, and histological characteristics are described. Conclusion: Fibrous dysplasia and ossifying fibroma are similar benign bone disorders that require differential diagnosis in order to establish suitable and specific treatments.
