Fibrolipoma of the Gingiva [PDF]

Journal of Periodontology, 1988
A case of gingival fibrolipoma is described. The lesion presented as a tumor‐like mass with a broad base arising from the attached gingiva adjacent to the mandibular left first bicuspid. Microscopic evaluation of the lesion revealed an admixture of mature adipose tissue and fibrous connective tissue. Fibrolipomas are an infrequent variant of lipomas. A

The position of the margin of the gingiva

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1958
Abstract Although the exact mechanism is unknown, certain empirical correlations make it possible to predict changes in the position of the free gingival margin. This information is useful in attaining pocket elimination and preserving periodontal health.

Desquamative Lesions of the Gingiva,

Journal of Periodontology, 1981
Previous reports, as well as the investigations reported here, clearly indicate that desquamative gingivitis is a clinical manifestation of several diseases. Correct identification of the underlying etiology is very important since approximately one-third of the patients with desquamative gingivitis may have cicatricial pemphigoid or pemphigus.

The regeneration of gingiva: Its potential value for the recession of healthy gingiva

Medical Hypotheses, 2010
The partial withdrawal of healthy gingiva not only affects the appearance but also can bring about some complaints when the healthy gingiva is stimulated for some reasons. The junctional epithelium of gingiva moves to the root with aging, and compared with the tooth crown, the tooth root which has lower mineral content is prone to decay. Thus, gingival

Peripheral ameloblastoma of the gingiva

Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1983
Peripheral ameloblastoma is not widely known among clinicians. It has been reported in the literature as either basal cell carcinoma of the gingiva or a peripheral ameloblastoma, but, according to Gardner,’ the two should be considered a single entity.

Ameloblastoma of attached gingiva

British Dental Journal, 1994
A case of a rare extra-osseous ameloblastoma is presented. It meets identical histological criteria as intra-osseous ameloblastoma, but its clinical presentation and behaviour are very different. It is non-invasive and may be locally excised without recurrence.

A study of the intertransplantation of gingiva

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1970
Abstract This study was undertaken to determine whether any change in morphology can be expected to occur in gingiva transplanted into a zone of alveolar mucosa. Dogs were used as the experimental animals. These were divided into groups of three each and studied over a period of 1 year.
