A quasi-experimental therapeutic intervention study was carried out with the objective of evaluating the response to the application of Oleozón as the only treatment in patients diagnosed with chronic fibroedematous gingivitis, who came to the consultation of the Manuel Sánchez Silveira de Manzanillo Teaching Clinic, in the period from September 2016 to May 2017. The study universe consisted of 102 patients affected with this entity. The variables age, sex, oral hygiene, frequency of treatment application, response to therapy were recorded. The confirmed diagnosis of chronic fibroedematous gingivitis was made from the clinic and the oral physical examination of the marginal and papillary gums. A methodology for the application in the affected regions of the medicinal preparation was used, each patient was evaluated on the 3rd, 7th and 15 days in the equal, improved and cured categories. The age group of 20 to 29 years and the male sex predominated. They highlighted the inadequate rates of oral hygiene. The best response to treatment was between 7 and 15 days, demonstrating that Oleozon is effective in the treatment of chronic edematous gingivitis.
