This case report aims to describe the management of a case of rare gingival lesion in a young pediatric patient.
An increase in the size of the gingival tissue is known as gingival hyperplasia. This can cause esthetic as well as functional problems, and interfere with normal functions like mastication and speech. A histological form of fibroma, fibroepithelial hyperplasia is a proliferative fibrous lesion of the gingival tissue. These lesions can be caused by trauma or persistent irritation, or they can develop from the periodontal, periodontal ligament, or periosteum cells.
This paper discusses a situation in which the parents of a 4-year-old girl presented to the department with a major complaint of swelling in the upper front tooth region, who was diagnosed with fibroepithelial hyperplasia with the help of a biopsy and histologic evaluation.
In this case surgical excision was performed under local anesthesia with no postoperative complications, and a 2-year follow-up was made with a positive outcome.
When these type of gingival lesions are present, they should be investigated and diagnosed properly. They should be managed as soon as possible without causing any further complications to permanent dentition.

本病例报告旨在描述一名小儿患者罕见牙龈病变的处理情况。
牙龈组织增大称为牙龈增生。这会导致美观及功能问题，并干扰咀嚼和言语等正常功能。纤维上皮增生是一种牙龈组织的增殖性纤维性病变，属于纤维瘤的一种组织学形式。这些病变可由创伤或持续性刺激引起，也可由牙周、牙周韧带或骨膜细胞发展而来。
本文讨论了一名4岁女孩的父母带其前来科室，主要主诉上前牙区域肿胀，经活检和组织学评估诊断为纤维上皮增生的情况。
本病例在局部麻醉下进行了手术切除，无术后并发症，并进行了2年随访，结果良好。
当出现这类牙龈病变时，应进行恰当的检查和诊断。应尽快处理，以免对恒牙列造成进一步并发症。
