Gingival enlargement is defined as an overgrowth or increase in the size of gingiva
![Page 3: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Classification
Based on the etiological factors and pathological factors:
I. Inflammatory enlargement
II. Drug induced enlargement
III. Enlargements associated with systemic disease or conditions
IV. Neoplastic enlargement
V. False enlargement

Degree of enlargement
Grade I: No signs of gingival enlargement
Grade ΙΙ: confined to interdental papilla
Grade ΙΙΙ: involve papilla and marginal gingiva
Grade VI: enlargement covers three quarters or more of the crown

• Idiopathic gingival enlargement is a rare (1:750000) condition of undermined cause
• The term “Gingival fibromatosis” is used for those cased which have an hereditary pattern, are part of a more extensive syndrome or idiopathic
![Page 6: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• It appears as an isolated disorder or may sometimes be associated with other conditions like epilepsy, hypettrichosis and mental retardation or associated with syndromes
• Males and females are equally affected
• Idiopathic gingival fibromatosis primarily present in childhood
![Page 7: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Clinical features
The facial and lingual surfaces of mandible and maxilla are generally affected or either jaws
Pink, firm, leathery in consistency and pebbled surfaces
In severe cases, the jaws appear bulbous.

Clinical features
The resultant effect may include speech difficulty and painful mastication as food deflects onto the enlarged tissue.
Other common side effects : diastema, malocclusion and prolonged retention of primary teeth.
The enlarged tissue creates retention for plaque

Management
• Factors to consider in treatment planning :
- esthetic
-functional needs
-onset of puberty because recurrence is predominately observed in children and teenagers rather than in adults.
![Page 10: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Management
• Controversy regarding when treatment should be performed.
Minimal Gingival Enlargement:- Thorough scaling and home care.
Severe Gingival Enlargement:- Surgical removal of enlarged gingiva and extraction of all teeth and reduction of the alveolar bone to prevent recurrence.

Management
Technique
Internal or external bevel gingivectomy
Electrocautery Lasers
![Page 12: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
External bevel Gingivectomy
Advantages: Simplicity and quickness
Disadvantages :
Post-operative discomfort Increased chance post-operative bleeding Sacrifices keratinized tissue Does not allow for osseous recontouring
![Page 13: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Laser
Advantages : Ability to coagulate and seal blood vessels Vaporize the tissue Make accurate incisions and Improve healing because of its antimicrobial
properties.

• A 13 years girl came with complaint of generalized gingival overgrowth
• Slowly increasing in size

Medical History
The patient’s medical history was normal.
She did not exhibit any signs of hypettrichosis or mental retardation or syndrome and did not take any medication that could be associated with gingival hyperplasia.
![Page 18: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Family history
There was no family history of similar types of gingival enlargement
![Page 19: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Clinical Examination
• The extra-oral examination did not reveal any abnormality.
• The intra-oral examination revealed generalized, severe gingival hyperplasia involving both buccal and lingual regions in the maxillary and mandibular arches except left side of mandibular arch.
![Page 20: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• The enlarged gingival tissues covered two-thirds or more of the clinical crowns of almost all teeth, and the palate was deformed by the excessive gingival tissue.
• Hence provisional diagnosis - idiopathic gingival enlargement was arrived at

Internal bevel gingivectomy
Objectives:It removes the pocket lining
It conserves the relatively uninvolved outer surface of the gingiva
It produces sharp, thin gingival margin for adaptation to the bone-tooth junction
![Page 29: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Histological Features
Densely arranged collagen bundles numerous fibroblasts, and connective tissue that is relatively avascular.

Histological Features
Thickened and acanthotic epithelium also is present with elongated rete pegs
Few chronic inflammatory cells

Discussion
• Gingival enlargement can be caused by inflammation, systemic diseases such as leukemic infiltration and medication use such as cyclosporine, phenytoin, or nifedipine.
• In this case a diagnosis of idiopathic gingival enlargement was made because the patient was not under any medication that could lead to gingival enlargement, no significant family history was present and the patient did not exhibits any signs of syndrome
![Page 32: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• The suggested treatments of idiopathic gingival enlargement vary according to the complete eruption of permanent teeth and the severity of the enlargement
• Minimal gingival enlargement :Scaling and root planing of teeth and sufficient homecare suffices in cases of minimal gingival enlargement
• Surgical intervention is required when enlarged tissues impair function and appearance and act as a barrier to the eruption of teeth
![Page 33: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Bozzo et al. and Bittencourt et al. suggested a conservative approach with their cases based on the patient’s condition and reports in the literature.
• However some authors recommend excision of the excess tissue combined with removal of all teeth in severe cases and suggest the condition does not recur if the teeth are extracted.
The most widely used surgical approach is the gingivectomy/ gingivoplasty
![Page 34: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• In this case quadrant-by-quadrant internal bevel gingivectomy and extraction of over retained teeth #53 and #74 done
![Page 35: Management of Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/552c8ca14a7959b4068b473e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Conclusion• Gingival enlargement is prevalent disease in
child, conferring to the periodontist and pedodontist an important role in the correct diagnosis and treatment of affected patients.
• Gingival enlargement when present in child represent not only a pathologic situation but also functional and esthetic impediment hence prompt correction of this condition is a at most importance
