    Plasma cell gingivitis is an uncommon, nonmalignant lesion caused by allergens leading to plasma cell infiltration in gum tissue. Diagnosis may involve biopsies and blood tests to rule out other systemic disorders.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Oral Pathology

    Background:

    • Plasma cell gingivitis (PCG) is an uncommon, nonmalignant inflammatory condition affecting the gingiva.
    • It is characterized by a significant infiltration of plasma cells within the gingival connective tissue.

    Observation:

    • This case report details a patient presenting with plasma cell gingivitis.
    • The condition is triggered by an offending allergen, leading to characteristic tissue changes.

    Findings:

    • Diagnosis often necessitates a soft tissue biopsy of both affected and normal gingival tissues.
    • Blood analysis is crucial for excluding other systemic diseases that may manifest orally.

    Implications:

    • Accurate diagnosis of PCG is essential for appropriate management and treatment planning.
