Central Giant Cell Granuloma (CGCG) is a benign intraosseous lesion of the jaws that often presents with varying degrees of aggressiveness. Large lesions may cause significant tooth mobility, expansion of bone and cortical destruction, necessitating surgical resection. We present a case of an extensive mandibular CGCG in a 40-year-old female who reported with painful swelling and multiple mobile teeth. Radiographic imaging revealed extensive cortical erosion. Wide surgical excision and multiple extractions were performed under general anaesthesia. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of CGCG. This case highlights the diagnostic importance of imaging and histopathology, as well as the need for individualized surgical planning in the management of large, aggressive CGCGs.
