Background:

Central odontogenic fibroma (COF) is a rare benign odontogenic neoplasm.
Gardner's classification categorizes COF into simple and complex types.
Understanding COF's characteristics is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.

Observation:

A rare case of a simple type central odontogenic fibroma is presented.
The study details the clinical manifestations of the observed fibroma.
Histopathological analysis was performed for differential diagnosis.

Findings:

The central odontogenic fibroma presented with specific clinical signs and symptoms.
Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis and differentiated it from other lesions.
