title: Inflammatory Papillary Hyperplasia in a Non-Denture-Wearing Patient: A Case History Report.
abstract: Inflammatory papillary hyperplasia (IPH) is a benign lesion of the palatal mucosa. It is usually found in denture wearers but has also been reported in dentate patients with no history of wearing maxillary prostheses. This case history report describes an example of the latter and highlights the importance of professional awareness to diagnose IPH among non-denture-wearing patients.
