Regenerative endodontic therapy (RET) was employed for this patient. Remarkably, after initiating RET, the fibrous hyperplasia gradually resolved without the need for surgical excision. Following this observation, two hypotheses were proposed: (1) focal fibrous hyperplasia may have an endodontic origin and (2) hyperplastic development coupled with endodontic involvement might diminish with endodontic therapy alone.
