ABSTRACT
Gingival fibromatosis is frequently an isolated condition of little consequence apart from a cosmetic problem and occasional associations with uncommon syndromes. This case report of a 38 year old female patient describes the gingival enlargement associated with chronic periodontitis. The enlargement extended beyond the middle thirds of the clinical crowns of the teeth. It was associated with generalized mobility, pocket formation and bone loss. The patient also complained of bleeding gums and difficulty in speech and mastication. This is the first case report of gingival fibromatosis associated with chronic periodontitis.
