Abstract
THE PURPOSE OF STUDY was to compare probing dept resolution achieved by gingvectomy and periodontal flap techniques in the treatment of nifedipine-induced gingival enlargement. Ten patients who were receiving nifedipine for at least 6 months participated in the study. Five patients were randomly to the ginvivectomy group and five patients to the periodontal flap group. Only anterior segment of the oral cavity (canine to canine) were surgical treated. Clinical measurements, including probing depths, plaque index, and gingival sulcus index, were taken at baseline, 6 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year. Result showed that probing depths were similar in six weeks in both groups after treatment, while significant differences were found for the periodontal flap group when compared to the gingivectomy group at 6 months (2.58 0.38mm versus 4.9 0.8mm, respectively) and one year (3.3 0.65mm versus 6.40mm 1.02mm, respectively). Within its limitations, this study suggests that pocket reduction achieved by the periodontal flap may be sustained of longer periods of the time than by the gingivectomy techniques in the treatment of nifedipine-include gingival enlargement.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to compare probing depth resolution archived by gingivectomy and periodontal flap techniques as surgical treatment modalities for gingival enlargement associated with Nifedipine.
The prevalence of hypertension was 12 % in a rural community and 25 % in a semi-urban community ( Aged 35 to 64 years ) Among these with hypertension 28 % were Diabetes
Nifedipine is a dihydropyridine which belong to the class of pharmacological agents known as calcium antagonist
Calcium Channel Blockers are drugs developed for the treatment:
Angina
pectoris, unstable angina, chronic stable angina, ventricular arrhythmias, hypertension, Coronary artery spasms and Cardiac arrythmia

scalloped external bevel incision was made at CEJ level Kirkland knife and Orban knife Following removal of the enlarged gingival tissue, gingivoplasty was performed using a #8 round diamond bur at high speed in order to restore physiological gingival form. Scaling and root planing was performed by hand currets and hemostasis achieved by pressure
and lingual Periodontal flap were performed from mesial line angle of the first bicuspid to the mesial line angle of the contralateral bicuspid An inverse bevel incision was performed with a # 15 blade at the CEJ level The inner surfaces of the buccal and lingual flaps were thinned with the same blade The flaps were raised by Periosteal elevator and the collar of tissue was removed by currets and scaling and root planning performed 4-0 Vicryl suture were employed

Patients in both group were received periodontal dressing following surgical procedure and oral hygiene were instructed. 0.2 chlorexidine solution ( 1 minute rinses every 8 hours for 7 days ) Amoxicillin ( 500 mg every 8 hours for 7 days ) Acetaminophen 500mg and Ibuprfen 400 mg ( every 8 hours as needed ) Post operative examinations consisting probing depth, plaque index and gingival index were performed at 6 weeks and 6 months

Discussion
Gingival hyperplasia is an important side affect for people who takes Calcium antagonists ( Nifedipline ) over than three month After treatment, good oral hygiene in preventing severe hyperplasia was supported by our finding Gingival enlargement is more severe in area where local irritants such as plaque, defective restoration Some hyperplastic tissue can interfere with dental occlusion and mastication
There was no significant different of probing depth in six weeks between gingivectomy and flap operation technique
Conclusion
Long term use of Nifedipine induce Gingival Enlargment Good oral hygiene and regular maintenance can control severe gingival hyperplasia Pocket reduction achieved by the periodontal flap may be sustained of longer period of the time than by gingivectomy techniques in the treatment of Nifedipine - induce gingival enlargement
