Gingival Fibromatosis or Gingival Hyperplasia is a rare disorder with slow and progressive growth and is characterized by being a neoplasm in the gingival tissue, where it can be found in a localized manner. This study aims to elucidate the characteristics and possible manifestations, aiming to facilitate its identifi cation, treatment and control. Methodology: This is a literature review. Forty-two articles and theses with languages in English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese were researched, whose sources are Scielo and Pubmed, and 25 articles were included for their relevance to the topic. Literature review: Gingival fi bromatosis is a clinical manifestation present in several genetic syndromes that can lead to a craniofacial involvement that is characterized by the expansion and accumulation of connective tissue with increased number of cells and collagen fi bers. Fibromatosis has a proliferation of well-diff erentiated fi broblasts with varying amounts of collagen between proliferating cells and can be classifi ed as: drug-induced and hereditary. Through histopathology, the stratifi ed squamous epithelium is obese with prominent and elongated ridges, dense connective tissue and disorganized cells with slow but progressive growth. It is also a rare disorder of non-neoplastic gingival tissue (1 case/750,000 people) that presents normal coloration, fi rm consistency and absence of infl ammatory signs. Conclusion: The expression of Gingival Fibromatosis has several origins, making it necessary to know the causative factor in the patient to prepare the treatment plan according to their needs, so the conversation with the patient through the anamnesis is so important at the beginning of treatment. Oral manifestations are important clinical fi ndings to assist in the diagnosis of genetic syndromes, allowing the dentist to guide their patients and clarify doubts about dental impairment.
