Hairy polyp is a rare lesion, especially in the oral region. The literature search revealed only 10 case reports of oral HP published between January 1999 and January 2019, and they revealed a predominance of the disease in female newborns. Two uncommon facts were presented in this case: the patient was male and diagnosis was made at 12 years old.
