• Resumen

  • Es bien conocido que el tratamiento con diversos tipos de medicamentos puede producir en las encías un crecimiento de este tejido. Se reporta que medicamentos tales como los bloqueadores de los canales de calcio, inmunosupresores, anticonvulsivantes pueden expresar esos efectos laterales. La nifedipina es la que principalmente se reporta que produce agrandamientos gingivales, al ser utilizada durante tratamientos largos para trastornos cardiovasculares, angina de pecho e hipertensión. Se presenta un caso de paciente varón de 60 años de edad, hipertenso, tratado con nifedipina, con agrandamientos gingivales. Se realiza fase higiénica y terapia quirúrgica con electro cirugía. La evolución y predecibilidad fueron favorables. (Duazary 2009 I; 51-55).
