2016 Indian Journal of Dental Advancements

In the present case report, we have discussed about the oral health status and care of a 42 year old male patient with bipolar mood disorder. Patient was having drug-induced gingival enlargement due to sodium valproate & periodontitis which was treated by full mouth disinfection followed by local drug delivery using tetracycline fibres.
