CASE SUMMARY: MANAGEMENT OF FIBROUS HYPERPLASTIC GINGIVITIS
Keywords:
• Pathogenesis: Chronic irritation from microbial biofilms and calculus led to reactive tissue proliferation and fibrous degeneration. o • Initial Presentation: Gingival hypertrophy covering 50% of clinical crowns. o o Hyperemia (increased blood flow) and sensitivity in the interdental papillae. High tendency for provoked bleeding and heavy dental deposits. The Two-Phase Treatment ProtocolAbstract
This clinical report highlights the treatment of a systemically
healthy patient suffering from moderate fibrous hyperplastic gingivitis. The condition,
characterized by irreversible tissue remodeling due to chronic biofilm accumulation,
required a shift from purely conservative methods to a combined surgical approach.
