Felodipine‐Influenced Gingival Enlargement in an Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetic Patient

Abstract

This report demonstrated that the control of systemic factors seemed to have the most influence on success for this particular case. Since the control of diabetes was managed at the same time as the felodipine withdrawal, it remains difficult to speculate how these two factors impacted both the severity of the GE and the therapeutic results. More importantly, the conservative treatment rendered demonstrated the stability of periodontal status during maintenance phase and the avoidance of surgical interventions.
