Abstract

Gingival enlargement is a routine finding in regular dental practice. Though it has many etiological factors, enlargement due to drugs which are administered to treat the systemic problems is of major concern which needs attention. Drug-induced gingival overgrowth is frequently associated with anti hypertensives, anticonvulsants and immunosuppressants. As gingival enlargement develops, it affects the normal oral hygiene practice and may interfere with masticatory functions. It gradually becomes a source of pain and the condition often leads to disfiguration. Within the group of patients that develop this unwanted effect, there appears to be variability in the extent and severity of the gingival changes. It would seem ideal to identify and explore possible risk factors and relate them with the treatment plan. Here, we present a case of a 33 year old female patient on nifedipine since five years with drug induced gingival enlargement and its management

Özet

Dişeti büyümesi düzenli diş pratiğinde rutin bir bulgudur. Pek çok etiyolojik etkene sahip olmasına rağmen, sistemik problemleri tedavi etmek için uygulanan ilaçlara bağlı genişleme, dikkat edilmesi gereken önemli bir konudur. İlaç kaynaklı dişeti aşırı büyümesi sıklıkla anti hipertansifler, antikonvülzanlar ve immünsüpresanlar ile ilişkilidir. Gingival büyüme geliştikçe, normal ağız hijyeni pratiğini etkiler ve çiğneme fonksiyonlarına müdahale edebilir. Bu yavaş yavaş bir ağrı kaynağı haline gelir ve durum genellikle bozulmaya yol açar. Bu istenmeyen etkiyi geliştiren hasta grubunda, dişeti değişimlerinin boyut ve şiddetinde değişkenlik olduğu görülmektedir. Olası risk faktörlerini tanımlamak ve araştırmak ve tedavi planı ile ilişkilendirmek ideal görünmektedir. Burada, beş yıldan beri nifedipin tedavsi almaktayken ilaca bağlı gingival büyümesi olan 33 yaşında bir kadın hasta sunulmuş ve tedavisi tartışılmıştır.
