Najafi Assistant Professor, Department of Periodontology and Dental Research Center, School of Dentistry, M N. Sargolzaee Assistant Professor, Department of Periodontology and Dental Research Center, School of Dentistry, M 2015 10 03 A 28-year-old male farmer presented with a chief complaint of itching and extreme dis-comfort on the entire maxillary and mandibular gingivae. He was diagnosed with gingival myiasis and scaling was performed on both jaws. However because of the multiple larvae, complete removal with simple curettage and scaling was not feasible, therefore flap sur-gery was performed on the maxilla. One week later the sutures were removed and healing was uneventful. The patient failed to return for the treatment of his mandibular lesions probably because the administered antibiotics had reduced his discomfort.   https://fid.tums.ac.ir/index.php/fid/article/view/145 https://fid.tums.ac.ir/index.php/fid/article/download/145/145
