Idiopathic Gingival Fibromatosis with Aggressive Periodontitis : “ A Rare Case Report”

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5

Abstract

Idiopathic gingival fibromatosis is an uncommon, benign, hereditary condition with no specific cause. It is characterized by a slowly progressive, nonhemorrhagic, fibrous enlargement. It occurs either as an isolated disease or combined with some rare syndromes or chromosome disorders. Aggressive periodontitis comprises a group of rare, often severe, rapidly progressive forms of periodontitis often characterized by an early age of clinical manifestation and a distinctive tendency for cases to aggregate in families. The article highlights a rare case report exhibiting idiopathic gingival fibromatosis along with aggressive periodontitis. The diagnosis was based on a detailed clinical examination and case history recording, extensive haematological, microbiological and radiological investigation.
