Abstract
Hereditary gingival fibromatosis is a rare disease that has several debilitating oral and psychological manifestations, especially with young children and adolescents. The complexity of the treatment as well as the timing relative to the growth and maturation of the patient present a challenge. Few treatment options have been reported in the literature. This clinical report presents a multidisciplinary approach to treating a young patient with hereditary gingival fibromatosis by using implant-supported prostheses. The treatment steps and its outcome are discussed.Entities:
