The cause of gingival hyperplasia?

summary

Gingival hyperplasia refers to the increase of gingival volume caused by the increase of cell components in gingival tissue, which can be seen in the infectious diseases of gingival tissue caused by plaque biofilm, and also in the non-inflammatory changes caused by factors other than local stimulation. The cause of gingival hyperplasia? Let's talk about it

The cause of gingival hyperplasia?

One of the reasons is inflammation. Inflammation may be caused by poor oral hygiene or, for example, orthodontic braces. Other factors include general conditions (such as hormonal disorders or leukemia), drugs or genetic diseases, according to dentists at aikangjian dental hospital. In addition, local overgrowth may be benign or malignant.

Drug induced gingival hyperplasia, antiepileptic drugs, immunosuppressive drugs for transplant patients and calcium channel blockers for various cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. According to experts from aikangjian stomatological hospital, gingival inflammation may be an inducing factor of gingival hyperplasia.

As a result of long-term non brushing, food residues remain in the gingival sulcus and form dental calculus through the action of bacteria. Gingival congestion, swelling hyperplasia, sometimes slightly stimulated will bleed, causing inflammatory gingival hyperplasia.

matters needing attention

The stimulation factors were removed and the operation was performed. Surgical resection should be done thoroughly. Incision should be made on the normal tissue around the base of the mass to remove the mass together with periosteum, part of the alveolar bone at the base and periodontal ligament tissue at corresponding parts to prevent recurrence.
