Ancillary role of vitamin C in pink aesthetics.

Vaibhav Sheel1, Parth Purwar1, Jaya Dixit1, Priya Rai2.   

Abstract

A smile expresses feelings of joy, affection and self-confidence in an individual. Melanin hyperpigmentation of the gingiva jeopardises the aesthetics of an individual significantly. In the present case, gingival depigmentation was performed with a surgical scalpel along with local applications of ascorbic acid, yielding satisfactory aesthetic results with low subjective pain levels, and no recurrence has been observed after 9 months of follow-up. 2015 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
