“…Because of adjunctive training in physical evaluation, medicine, and advanced cardiac life-support, sensitivity to patients' medical problems is improved. 5. During the titration of diazepam, we have been running our IV drip at least 20 drops per minute, instead of the 2 per minute as mentioned by Hillman, McFall, and Gregg.2 The risk of phlebitis is thus virtually eliminated.…”

This case report describes a patient with Turner's syndrome receiving systemic androgen therapy who experienced marked gingival enlargement, bleeding, and discomfort. Turner's syndrome and its treatment are discussed. The literature pertaining to sex hormones and their role in affecting periodontal disease is reviewed. The patient was treated with full mouth gingivectomy and 2-week recall visits for a period of 2 months consisting of oral physiotherapy instructions, scaling, and topical fluoride application. She was then placed on 1-month recall for the next 4 months. This mode of therapy was effective in treating severe gingival hyperplasia in a patient receiving systemic androgen therapy.

“…4 Hartzer, Toto and Gargiulo (1971) employing auto radiography with Streptococcus mitis labeled with 1-131 showed that there was antibody activity vs. fragmented S. mitis, and that this activity was increased in the in flamed gingiva in pregnant and non-pregnant females. 5 Berglund (1971) demonstrated specificity of human antibodies in gingiva by coating sheep red blood cells with antigen from E. coli, Veillonella, and fusobacterium. Hemolysis resulted indicating that antibodies to these oral bacteria were present.…”
