A case of unusual shaped denture fibroma located on the floor of the mouth is reported. A 60-year-old female was referred to our department with the chief complaint of denture ill-fitness for past 2 years. A pedunculated, bank-like, firm tumor was on the right floor of the mouth extending from the midline to the retromolar trigone and was higher the alveolar crest. The tumor was excised at the base and alveoplasty was performed simultaneously. Microscopy revealed mature fibro-connective tissue containing perivascular chronic inflammatory cell infiltrations.
