Abstract

Sturge-Weber syndrome is often associated with different kinds of extraoral and intraoral manifestations, among which gingival overgrowth is one of the most common oral manifestations appreciated in the population. These oral manifestations can certainly be a type of intraoral hemangioma or just an angiomatous overgrowth, hence a thorough diagnosis of the same will help a clinician to draw an appropriate treatment strategy. The purpose of this case report is to showcase the importance of diagnosing a syndrome, associating it with its oral manifestations correctly and early treatment of the patients, thereby improving the quality of life of the patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome.
