Drug-induced gingival enlargement: an overview.

Compendium of continuing education in dentistry (Jamesburg, N.J. : 1995) - 1 May 2013

Moffitt Michelle L, Bencivenni Davide, Cohen Robert E

Abstract excerpt

The first documented case of drug-induced gingival enlargement was reported in 1939. Since that time, specific medications have been associated with this condition. Although the biologic mechanisms responsible for drug-mediated gingival enlargement remain unclear, a multifactorial etiology is considered to be responsible, with contributing factors including age, genetic predisposition, and local conditions. While...
