Abstrakt: |
Idiopathic gingival papillokeratosis with crypt formation (IGPC) is a new and a very rare benign entity, clinically characterized by white-yellowish plaques with papillary architecture located in the upper labial gingiva of adolescent patients. The condition generally exhibits a bilateral symmetrical distribution and is asymptomatic. We report two new cases, one with a classic presentation and the other in an older individual. Through these case reports, we describe and highlight the key clinical and histopathological features associated with IGPC for greater understanding and knowledge by general dentists, oral pathologists, and dermatologists. |
