RESUMO
Desquamative gingivitis (DG) is a unique non-plaque associated condition which can be aggravated by plaque accumulation.1 It is characterized by desquamation of surface epithelium, intense redness, pain and burning sensation of gingiva. It usually manifests with vesicle formation, atrophy, erosion and desquamation, illustrating diffuse erythema of the marginal and keratinized gingiva and peeling of the surface epithelium.
