Plasma cell gingivitis is a rare benign condition of the gingiva characterised by sharply demarcated erythaematous and oedematous gingiva often extending up to the muco gingival junction. It is considered a hypersensitive reaction. It presents clinically as a diffuse, erythaematous and papillary lesion of the gingiva, which frequently bleeds, with minimal trauma. This paper presents a case of a 42-year-old man who was diagnosed with plasma cell gingivitis, based on the presence of plasma cells in histological sections, and severe alveolar bone loss at the affected site, which was managed by surgical intervention.
浆细胞性龈炎是一种罕见的牙龈良性疾病，其特征为牙龈出现边界清晰的红斑和水肿，常延伸至龈黏膜交界处。它被认为是一种超敏反应。临床上表现为牙龈弥漫性、红斑性和乳头状病变，轻微创伤即可频繁出血。本文报告一例42岁男性患者，根据组织学切片中浆细胞的存在以及患部严重的牙槽骨吸收，诊断为浆细胞性龈炎，通过手术干预进行治疗。
