치은 섬유종증은 흔하지 않은 성장기 구강질환으로, 치은 변연과 치간 유두뿐만 아니라 부착치은의 전반에 걸친 섬유성 증식을 특징으로 한다. 본 증례의 환아는 전반적인 치은비대를 보이는 27개월 여아로 특별한 의학적 전신병력은 없으나 오빠에게서 같은 증상을 보이는 가족력이 존재하였다. 심미적 요구와 영구치 맹출 시기를 고려하여 만 5세경에 전신마취 하에 치은절제술 및 잔존 유치의 발치를 시행하였고 이후 1년 6개월의 추적검사 기간 동안 재발 양상은 관찰되지 않았다. 치은 섬유종증의 치료법으로 과증식된 치은 조직의 외과적 절제술을 고려할 수 있으며, 수 년 내에 재발하려는 경향이 있으므로 전문적이고 지속적인 구강 위생 관리가 필요하다. 외과적 치료를 지연하면 영구치의 맹출 지연으로 인한 유치의 잔존, 저작과 발음의 어려움, 부정교합 및 환자의 심리적인 문제 등을 초래하므로 치은 비대의 정도에 따라 유치열에서 외과적 치료를 할 수 있다.

Drug-induced gingival overgrowth is an abnormal increase of gingival tissues caused as a side effect of systemic medication. This report presents a severe case of valproate-induced gingival overgrowth combined with ulcerative and hemorrhagic lesions in a patient with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Considering the patient's limited cooperative ability, gingivectomy and excisional biopsy under general anesthesia were performed. The lesions were successfully treated without recurrence. When gingival enlargement does not subside with nonsurgical treatments, surgical procedure and excisional biopsy are to be performed. Postoperative management of oral hygiene is critical to prevent recurrence.

The gingival hyperplasia refers to an increase in the size of the gingival tissue produced by an increase in the number of its component cells. In order to investigate the cellular change in epithelium and subepithelial tissue of noninflammatory gingival hyperplasia, the gingival tissues were surgically obtained from the patients with dilantin gingival hyperplasia and idiopathic gingival hyperplasia. The excised tissue samples were fixed in neutral formalin for 6-24 hours, embedded with paraffin, sectioned at $4-6{\mu}m$ in thickness, mounted on glass slides coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane(Sigma Chemical Co., St. Louis, MO, U.S.A.) and immunocytochemically processed by Avidin-Biotin peroxidase complex method for detecting proliferating cell nuclear antigen, tenascin and collagen type IV. Monoclonal mouse anti-human PCNA antibody(Oncogene Science, Uniondale, NY, U.S.A., 1 : 250,000), monoclonal mouse anti-human tenascin antibody(Chemicon-International Inc., Temecula, CA, U.S.A., 1:5,000), and monoclonal mouse anti-human collagen type IV(Dakopatts, Glostrup, Denmark, 1: 50) were used as primary antibodies. The results were as follows: 1. In non-inflammatory gingival hyperplasia, the positive reaction to proliferating cell nuclear antigen was localized in the basal cell layer of gingival epithelium and well-developed rete pegs. 2. The positive reaction to tenascin was shown in the connective tissue subjacent to basament membrane of gingival tissue, and especially strong positive reaction was noted in the tip portion of connective tissue projections. 3. The positive reaction to collagen type IV was localized along the basement membranes of gingival epithelium and blood vessels. The results suggest that connective tissue enlargement may affect the proliferation of gingival epithelium.

치은비대와 연관된 대표적인 3가지 약물은 항경련제, 칼슘 길항제, 면역 억제재 등이다. 약물성 치은 비대를 위한 치료에서 근본적인 원인인 약물 대체가 선행되면 재발의 위험 등은 훨씬 낮아지는 이점이 있으나, 대체가 어려울 때는 치주치료와 철저한 유지관리가 병행되어야만 한다. 본 연구에서는 약물성 치은비대로 병적인 치아 이동이 일어난 경우, 약물 교체 없이 치주 치료로 염증이 해소 되면서 자발적으로 치아 이동이 함께 일어난 증례를 보고하고자 한다. 본 증례의 환자들도 치주치료 이후 적극적인 정기 점검을 통해 안정적으로 유지될 수 있었다.

The authors have studied histopathologically, based with symptoms, on 51 aged woman who treated in infirmary hospital of dental college of Seoul National University. The results are as follows: 1. Symptoms of patient were swelling of lower left mandible, gingival enlargement, ulceration and severe bleeding. 2. We observed characteristic features on the blood test such as decreased leukocytes with severe decrease of granular leuckocytes and sudden increase of lymphocytes. 3. On the histopathological studies, we observed severe destruction of gingival tissue with few granular leukocytic infiltration, but displaced with massive lymphochtic infiltration.

Idiopathic gingival hyperplasia is a rare condition of undetermined etiology. The enlargement is usually associated with the emergence of the teeth into the oral cavity and may regress after extraction. The enlarged gingiva may be primarily attributed to hyperplasia of the subepithelial layer that is relatively avascular and consists of densely arranged collagen bundles and numerous fibroblasts. The recommended time for treatment is after completion of eruption of permanent teeth. But the most important thing is the patient's psychological and esthetic needs. Lately, Schluger has proposed modified gingivectomy procedure with horizontal, internal beveled incision for thinning of the flap resulting in less pain and bleeding after treatment, minimal opportunity of infection. The purpose of this report is to document a case of 8-year-old girl who had registered in Dept. of Pediatric Dentistry of Seoul National University dental hospital for treatment of her gingival hyperplasia and delayed tooth eruption

Since laser therapy has been applied to dentistry, many dental practitioners are very interested in laser therapy on various intraoral soft tissue lesions including gingival hyperplasia and aphthous ulcer. The purpose of the present study was to determine the therapeutic effect and the harmful effect of a pulsed-Nd:YAG laser irradiation on human gingival tissue. In twenty periodontal patients with gingival enlargement, the facial gingival surface of maxillary anterior teeth was randomly irradiated at various power of 1.0W(100mJ, 10Hz), 3.0W(100mJ, 30Hz) and 6.0W(l50mJ, 40Hz) for 60 seconds by contact delivery of a pulsed-Nd:YAG laser(EN.EL.EN060, Italy). Immediately after laser irradiation, the gingival tissues were surgically excised and prepared in size of 1mm3. Subsequently the specimens were processed for prefixation and postfixation, embedded with epon mixture, sectioned in $1{\mu}$ thickness, stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and observed under transmission electron microscope(JEM 100 CXII). Following findings were observed; l. In the gingival specimens irradiated with l.OW power, widening of intercelluar space and minute vesicle formation along the widened intercellular space were noted at the epithelial cells adjacent to irradiated area. 2. In the gingival specimens irradiated with 3.0W power, the disruption of cellular membrane, aggregation of cytoplasm, and loss of intercellular space were observed at the epithelial cells adjacent to irradiated area. 3. In the gingival specimens irradiated with 6.0W power, the disruption of nuclear and cellular membrane was observed at the epithelial cells adjacent to irradiated area. The ultrastructural findings of this study suggest that surgical application of a pulsed-Nd:YAG laser on human gingival tissue may lead somewhat delayed wound healing due to damage of epithelial cells adjacent to irradiated area.

A 15-year-old patient, who had been diagnosed and treated as Burkitt cell type acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL-L3) already, visited our department. He complained of gingival enlargement and loosening teeth 1 month ago. The clinical examination revealed anterior open bite, gingival enlargement, and nontender swelling particularly in molar regions of both jaws. Deep periodontal pockets and severe mobility was shown on most of the teeth. The panoramic radiographs showed severe bone destruction and extrusion of the molars. The contrast enhanced CT showed multiple enhanced mass and bone marrow obliteration in both jaws. Chemotherapy was done and the swelling was subsided at 1 month later. In conclusion, radiologic findings of leukemia with soft tissue mass, known as chloroma or granulocytic sarcoma, mimic those of lymphoma, so blood test may be needed for the final diagnosis.
