Gingival Fibromatosis is the overgrowth of the gingiva characterized by an expansion and accumulation of the connective tissue with the rarely presence of an increased number of cells. It is hereditary or is induced as a side effect of systemic drugs. As an inherited disorder, Gingival Fibromatosis may be part of a genetic syndrome or it may be isolated, in which case it is referred to as hereditary gingival fibromatosis. Some of the cases of Hereditary Gingival Fibromatosis associated with dental abnormalities like Amelogenesis Imperfecta. It is a general term for a number of conditions that affect enamel formation and/or calcification. The purpose of this article is to report manifesting syndrome characterized by Gingival Fibromatosis associated with dental abnormalities, including generalized thin hypoplastic Amelogenesis Imperfecta, intrapulpal calcifications, delay of tooth eruption, pericoronal radiolucencies in unerupted teeth, dental agenesis and root dilacerations.

The Gingival recession is considered a multi-factorial. The etiology may be an anatomically vulnerable area, faulty tooth brushing, high frenum attachment. In cases where there is progressive recession, aesthetics concern or increasing dentinal hypersensitivity, we can do recession coverage. Depending upon the presence or absence of adequate keratinized tissue we can choose the technique. In case of adequate width of keratinized tissue, usually we can do displaced flap and in case where there is inadequate width, we can do gingival grafting.

Background: Palisaded neutrophilic granulomatous dermatitis is a rare inflammatory dermatosis with possible underlying systemic conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune connective tissue disease, and malignancies. Case Summary: We report a case of an 84-year-old man presenting with a 3-week eruption of asymptomatic annular plaques on his neck, which progressed to involve his back and legs. Skin biopsies confirmed a diagnosis of palisaded neutrophilic granulomatous dermatitis, and he was treated with prednisone. Full workup related to potential underlying causes of palisaded neutrophilic granulomatous dermatitis was completed. Conclusion: Palisaded neutrophilic granulomatous dermatitis may precede the onset of underlying systemic conditions or occur concomitantly. Following the diagnosis, clinicians should perform a comprehensive focused history, physical examination, and laboratory investigation related to the associated underlying diseases.
