Abstract

Plasma Cell Gingivitis (PCG) is a rare condition of the gingiva which is characterized by massive infiltration of plasma cells into the underlying sub-epithelial connective tissue. Clinically it appears as a diffuse reddening and edematous swelling of the gingiva with clear demarcation from the mucogingival border. Although the etiology is largely unknown; it is considered to be an immunologic reaction to allergens. Here we present a case of plasma cell gingivitis along with chronic generalized periodontitis in a 27 year old male patient brought upon by use of cinnamon containing toothpaste.
