Abstract

An eight-year-old female mongrel dog with symmetric diffuse hyperplasia around the upper jaw molar gingiva, was treated by removing dental plaque and dental calculus as well as root planing. Also gingivectomy and gingivoplasty were done. Histopathology of the resected sample revealed gingival hyperplasia. Thirteen months later, slight gingival hyperplasia appeared in proportion to dental deposition, and 3 years after the operation, the gingiva showed moderate hyperplasia in proportion to gradually increased dental deposition and severer hyperplasia in the region with a lot of dental deposition. No dental home care was made
