Presentation
Conclusions The present case is complex for multiple previously unreported manifestations. [nature.com]
Small osseous calcifications and abundant neurovascular bundles may also be present. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

- Gingival Overgrowth
(d) Gingival overgrowth of mandible, mainly in premolar region, is less severe than that of maxilla. Full size image There was massive gingival overgrowth in both maxillary and mandibular arches (Figure 1b–1d). [nature.com]

Treatment
Treatment by surgical resection is generally followed by regrowth of the gingival tissues (summary by Pehlivan et al., 2009). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Management of patients diagnosed with GF and AP includes non-surgical treatments, surgery with regenerative or resective therapy and anti-microbial treatment. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

Prognosis
Prognosis is precarious and the risk of recurrence exists. Background Gingival fibromatosis (GF) is a rare condition characterized by pathological, diffuse or local growth of gingiva. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Etiology
[…] by etiological heterogeneity [4, 23, 29, 41, 77]. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Here, we review the literatures on gingival fibromatosis and briefly summarize some characters on clinical, etiological, genetic and histopathological aspects. [nature.com]

Epidemiology GF associated with hereditary factors (non-syndromic) HGF (GINGF, ORPHA 2024, MIM 135300) is a rare disease with unknown prevalence [2–4] (Table 1). [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis and Pathophysiology The pathologic manifestation of GF is excessive accumulation of ECM proteins, including collagen type I [110–114]. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Prevention
It binds to the nascent type I procollagen peptides to prevent premature folding and aggregation of procollagen chains, and participates in the translocation and secretion of procollagen I into the extracellular space [115]. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
