Cherubism is a rare pediatric disease affecting the jaw. It appears among children between 2 and 5 years old. Maximum growth is observed at 7–8 years old, then lesions remain unchanged or increase slowly until puberty. Only 2 cases of later growth have been reported. We describe a case of cherubism reactivation in a 46-year-old woman. Appearance of a new lesion occurs in a context of local inflammation due to repeated friction of the dental prosthesis on the mandible. No article in the literature describes a similar case. This case shows the determining role of inflammation (local or general) in the pathophysiology of cherubism.
