ABSTRACT
Gingival enlargement also known as gingival hyperplasia or hypertrophy, is defined as an abnormal overgrowth of gingival tissues. A case of a 23-year-old female presenting with maxillary and mandibular chronic inflammatory gingival enlargement is reported here. Surgical therapy was done with scalpel to provide a good aesthetic outcome. Even with advanced treatment options, conventional scalpel treatment is a better option in terms of precise incision, lower cost and faster reepithelization. This case report also highlights the importance of patient motivation and compliance during and after therapy which act as a crucial factor in the success of treatment.
