Abstract

Fibrous palate hyperplasia is not a common case in literature. The cause of this pathological change is not completely known. The development of hyperplasia may also be associated with a genetic mutation in the gingival soft tissue or gingival injury. We present a case of a 44-year-old patient who developed a swelling that manifested in the hard palate. After the excision, there were no histological elements in the material that indicated aggressive behavior of the formation. The clinical and histological diagnosis was fibrous hyperplasia, which is a rare condition in the palate since it’s not a common site for injury.
