Thus, surgery might be risky for patients with medical conditions. Objective In this report, a patient with severe inflammatory papillary hyperplasia, medical problems and dental fear was treated with a 5-week nonsurgical protocol. Method Once in a week, the upper denture was relined with a zinc enolic paste, for four weeks. In the fifth week, the denture was relined with fast set polymethyl methacrylate resin instead of zinc enolic paste so that the material would last longer than only a week until the new pair of dentures was manufactured. Results and Conclusion The generated pressure combined with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of the paste led to the elimination of the inflammatory papillary hyperplasia completely, satisfying the patient and allowing the manufacturing of a new set of complete dentures. 03 31 2017 151 154 TODENTJ-11-151 1 10.2174/crossmark_policy opendentistryjournal.com benthamopen.com true Peer Reviewed Single blind Checked with iThenticate 2016-11-21 2017-01-11 2017-02-13 2017-03-31 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode 10.2174/1874210601711010151 1553506997 https://opendentistryjournal.com/VOLUME/11/PAGE/151/ https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-151/TODENTJ-11-151.xml J.
