Florid cemento-osseous dysplasia refers to a group I of fibro-osseous lesions which are exuberant, multi-quadrant and arise from the tooth-bearing area of the jaws that consists of cellular fibrous connective tissue with bone and cementum like tissue. The lesion is usually benign and requires no treatment unless cosmetically concerning or symptomatic. Symptoms such as dull pain or drainage are almost always associated with exposure of the sclerotic calcified masses in the oral cavity. This may emerge as the result of progressive alveolar atrophy under a denture or after extraction of teeth in the affected area involved. In this case report a rare case has been reported that occurred in middle aged Indian women of a secondary osteomyelitis of a Florrid Cemento Osseous Dysplasia lesion during the surgical procedures and the diagnostic challenges it posed along with its treatment options.
