Abstract

A male patient, 65 years old presented to the clinic with generalized gingival overgrowth on the anterior mandible. The nifedipine intake, a calcium channel antagonist, caused this pathological condition. The diode laser applied on gingival tissues without injected anaesthesia. The healing was assessed and found to be uneventful. The advantages and disadvantages of this technique are discussed.
