description The purpose ofthis preliminary retrospective study was to determine the prevalence of fibroma inoral mucosa among patients attending USMdental clinicfrom 1/&'2006-1/&'2010.Fibroma of the oral mucosa is the most common benign tumor ofthe oral cavity. It is a reactive hyperplasia of fibrous connective tissue in response to local irritation or trauma. A lesion on any part of the oral mucosa have a broad differential diagnosis ranging from traumatic lesions (mucocele), neurogenic lesions (neurofibromatosis), lipoma, epithelial tumors (squamous papilloma) and inflammatory/reactive hyperplasia of soft tissue (pulp polyp). Atotal number of 192 patients (82 male and 110 female) who are registered in the OralMedicine and Oral Pathology LogBook were included in this study regardless of their age, 16%of them were diagnosed to have fibroma and out of that, 29%of them were male and 79%female. The peak incidence of the lesion was in the 3'ddecade of life. The lesions occurred in the tongue, lip mucosa, sulcus region and buccal mucosa were each to be 12.9%, 12.9%,32.2 %and 41.9%. This study shows that fibroma is one of the common oral mucosal lesion and it occurred mostly in the 3'ddecade of lifewhere the prevalence is higher in female patients.
