Idiopathic or hereditary gingival fibromatosis is a benign oral disorder characterized by enlargement of the oral gingival tissues. This article describes a case of a female child who exhibited a generalized gingival overgrowth in both arches at birth. Other causes of gingival overgrowth and the clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic characteristics are discussed. Treatment consisted of surgical removal of the hyperplastic fibrous tissue in a series of gingivectomies. Medical history, clinical examination, and histopathologic and genetic findings were essential to rule out other systemic abnormalities. This unusual case of nonsyndromic idiopathic gingival fibromatosis was followed for 5 years, and no recurrence was seen.
特发性或遗传性牙龈纤维瘤病是一种良性口腔疾病，其特征为口腔牙龈组织增生。本文描述了一名女童病例，该女童出生时双侧牙弓均出现广泛性牙龈过度生长。文中还讨论了牙龈过度生长的其他原因以及临床、影像学和组织病理学特征。治疗方法为通过一系列牙龈切除术手术切除增生的纤维组织。病史、临床检查以及组织病理学和遗传学检查结果对于排除其他全身异常情况至关重要。该例非综合征性特发性牙龈纤维瘤病的罕见病例随访了5年，未见复发。
