Plasma Cell Gingivitis – Does it still exist?

We present the case of a rarely seen mucosal pathology, previously referred to in the literature as "plasma cell gingivitis", in an otherwise fit and healthy Caucasian 23-year-old male. This condition was thought to be associated with historical components of toothpaste or chewing gum, and, was thought to be no longer existent with removal of the causative ingredient from these products. However, we would like to highlight that this entity is still present today and colleagues in our specialty can come across these cases being referred for surgical excision.
