Odontogenic Fibroma

Odontogenic Fibroma

Alta Stomatology is an innovative oral disease research company dedicated to developing effective solutions for odontogenic fibroma. The odontogenic fibroma is a benign neoplasm of odontogenic ectomesenchymal origin, characterized by relatively mature collagenous fibrous tissue with varying amount of odontogenic epithelium. It can occur in central or peripheral location, the latter being more common by a 1.4:1 ratio. At Alta Stomatology, we're dedicated to offering one-stop services for odontogenic fibroma research, including whole-genome sequencing, the development of novel therapies, and the molecular mechanisms behind this disorder. If you have any needs, please feel free to contact us.

Research on Odontogenic Fibroma

The odontogenic fibroma is a benign odontogenic neoplasm with central and peripheral variants. Both variants are characterized histopathologically by a fibrous proliferation with varying amounts of odontogenic epithelium. It typically presents as a well-circumscribed radiolucency, often inducing root resorption. Odontogenic fibroma consists of fibrous connective tissue with varying collagen density, ranging from loose, somewhat myxoid patterns to more mature collagen fibers. The tumor is classified as a neoplasm of odontogenic ectomesenchyme, with or without odontogenic epithelium. 

Central odontogenic fibroma is a very rare proliferation of mature odontogenic mesenchyme. Generally the lesion is asymptomatic except the swelling of the jaw. The lesion may evolve from a dental germ (dental papilla or follicle) or from the periodontal membrane, and therefore is invariably related to the coronal or radicular portion of teeth. Radiographically the tumor sometimes produces an expansile multilocular radiolucency similar to that of the ameloblastoma. The peripheral odontogenic fibroma is characterized by a fibrous or fibromyxomatous proliferation that contains varying amounts of odontogenic or presumed odontogenic epithelium. It has been considered a rare gingival neoplasm.

Our Diagnosis Methods

At Alta Stomatology, we understand the importance of accurate diagnosis for effective treatment of odontogenic fibroma. That's why we have developed cutting-edge diagnosis methods to guide the diagnosis and assessment of the severity of odontogenic tumor disease.

Diagnosis Methods Description
Radiography Examination We employ state-of-the-art radiography technology to obtain detailed images of the location of the lesion, type of lesion, etc., enabling our experts to accurately identify tumor occurring in the oral cavity.
Polarizing Microscopy Polarized light microscopy is used to study so-called transparent and opaque anisotropic materials. By measuring the polarized color exhibited by collagen fibers under a polarizing microscope, you can understand the sensitivity and specificity of staining and understand biological behavior.
