It represents approximately 2% to 5% of all oral fibrous proliferations submitted for biopsy and is found predominantly in Caucasians and rarely in other races. Most often giant cell fibroma is mistaken for papilloma because of its papillary surface or fibroma because of its fibrous or elastic nature. Here, we report a case of giant cell fibroma, in the region of the incisive papilla, in a 30-year old autistic female.

It was first described by Weathers and Callihan in 1974. It was named for its characteristically large, stellate-shaped, mononuclear and multinucleated giant cells. Weathers and Callihan reviewed more than 2000 specimens at Emory University of which 108 specimens met the criteria for reclassification of GCF (1). Before Weathers’ and Callihans’ distinction of GCF, Eversole and Rovin compared and contrasted 279 fibrous hyperplastic gingival lesions, which falls into four categories: pyogenic granuloma, peripheral gingival fibroma, peripheral giant cell granuloma, and peripheral ossifying fibroma. Each has its own diagnostic histopathologic characteristics but exhibit overlap of clinical presentation (2,3). After distinguishing GCF among fibrous hyperplasias, Weathers and Campbell further elucidated the structure of the lesion when they studied them under light microscopy. They concluded again that dominant cells in the GCF were indeed unique, and that GCF merited its own classification (4,5). Giant cell fibroma is a fibrous oral benign asymptomatic pedunculated or sessile nodule less than 1 cm in size, more commonly seen in the mandibular gingiva and the lesion may persist for several years (6,7). The giant cell fibroma is a localized reactive proliferation of fibrous tissue, much like the irritation fibroma. It usually remains small and may have a broad base or be on a thick stalk. It is painless and often has lobules or nodules on its surface. The most characteristic histological feature is the presence of large spindle-shaped and stellate-shaped mononuclear cells and multinucleated cells (4). Very few case reports are seen regarding this tumour and controversy regarding the origin of this lesion continues (8).

Methods: The geometries of the ProTaper Universal and HeroShaper Ni-Ti rotary systems’ selected files were created using three-dimensional finite element modelsThe three-dimensional FEA model within a curved canal was established by integrating a simulated canal and natural tooth. A micro-focus CT scanner was used to scan the models. After integration and modification a final three-dimensional model with a smooth surface and mostly centered canal was established. The stresses on the instrument during simulated shaping of a root canal were analyzed numerically by using a three-dimensional finite element package, LS-DYNA, taking into account the nonlinear mechanical behavior of the nickel-titanium material. Stress distribution in the instruments and the canal walls was recorded during simulated shaping. Results: With ProTaper file system, stress concentrations were determined towards the outer aspect of the curvature in the apical portion of the canal but in HeroShaper system stress was more concentrated in the middle portion of the canal and were less than ProTaper model. Conclusion: HeroShaper files cut more efficiently and generated less stress on the canal walls than ProTaper files because of their possitive rake angle. It was observed that there was stress concentration towards the outer aspect of the curvature in the apical portion of the canal with the ProTaper file system. This shows us that these files are more feasible for apical transportation.
