Gingival Depigmentation: A Case Series
Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Gingival hyper-pigmentation usually occurs due to the abnormal accumulation of melanin in the gingival tissue and confers a dark appearance to the gingiva. Gingival hyperpigmentation often compromises smile esthetics and can occur due to several physiological disorders. Several treatment options are available for this condition. In the present case series, effort has been made to assess the procedure of melanin depigmentation with the help of scalpel and rotary abrasive technique.
