Abstract
Hereditary gingival fibromatosis can occur as an isolated trait or as part of a syndrome. We report on three generations of one family featuring an autosomal dominant syndrome with variable expression of gingival fibromatosis with associated hearing deficiencies, hypertelorism, and supernumerary teeth. We propose that this represents a new syndrome within the spectrum of those including gingival enlargement. J Periodontol 1995; 66:75–79.Keywords
