- Abstract
Denture irritation hyperplasia is a hyper plastic lesion of the oral mucosa which results from chronic irritation as a result of wearing poorly adapted dentures. It is most commonly seen in maxillary arch with female patients being mostly effected. The lesion varies in size from only a few millimeters to extending to involve the entire quadrant. The clinical management of denture induced hyperplasia depends upon the size of lesion and involves the elimination of causative factors, excision of excess fibrous tissue accompanied by an appropriate prosthetic rehabilitation. This case series presents the management of denture induced hyperplastic lesion of varying sizes present in maxillary arch by providing appropriate tissue rest and tissue conditioning as well as by surgical excision followed by new denture fabrication to achieve acceptable function for patients.
