Although most of the previous documents have discussed on common findings like a prominent lingual papillae, or solitary overgrowth of gingival soft tissue, this article focuses on a relatively rare occurrence of multiple nodular manifestations of Neurofibromatosis-1 on an edentulous alveolar ridge, tongue, palate and lips of an elderly female patient.Entities:
