title: Gingival fibrous hamartoma associated with natal teeth.
abstract: A variety of gingival enlargements can occur in children, but they are rarely observed in the infant. The aim of this study is to present a case of a ten-month old male patient, with an anterior mandibular hamartoma associated to natal teeth, and to describe the clinical and histological characteristics of this anomaly and the treatment performed.
