Abstract
The aetiology and surgical interventions in cases of hypertrophy of mucous membrane are described. The three well known surgical procedures of excising the hypertrophic parts are described and the advantages and disadvantages of the methods are discussed. With a long experience in treating such cases the authors are less using the described ways of intervention. As the hypertrophy of the gums is usually accompanied with atrophic changes of the alveolar processus the authors use a new method combining the removal of hypertrophic tissue with a plastic operation of the alveolar processus achieving thus a good base for a new dental plate.
