Epulis, a gingival growth, is typically a focal fibrous hyperplasia or related lesion. Dentists must be familiar with these common oral pathology findings.

Area of Science:

  • Oral Pathology
  • Dentistry
  • Gingival Lesions

Background:

  • Epulis is a clinical term for localized gingival growths.
  • Common epulides include focal fibrous hyperplasias, peripheral ossifying fibromas, pyogenic granulomas, and peripheral giant cell granulomas.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the histologic features and clinical relevance of common epulides.
  • To discuss the biological and clinical behavior of these gingival lesions.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of gingival lesions over 12 years.
  • Analysis of cases submitted to the Oral Pathology Diagnostic Service at The University of Western Ontario.

Main Results:

  • The majority of epulides are focal fibrous hyperplasias or related lesions.

  • Epulides are common oral lesions requiring dental familiarity.

    • Conclusions:

    • Dentists should be well-acquainted with the diagnosis and management of common epulides.
    • Understanding histologic features aids in managing gingival growths.
