Summary

Pyogenic granuloma is a common tumor-like growth of the oral cavity considered to be non-neoplastic in nature. They usually present as a reactive lesion occur in response to chronic and recurring tissue injury, in which capillaries are very prominent commonly seen arising from interdental gingiva. Pyogenic granuloma may occur in all ages, with a peak age of incidence in the second decade of life, more common in young adult females, possibly because of vascular effects of female hormones.

Conditions

  • Pyogenic Granuloma of Gingiva

Interventions

DEVICE

laser therapy

Laser-treated group (test group): This group consisted of ten patients treated using diode lasers. The diode laser was operated in continuous wave mode with an output power of 3 W in contact mode to excise the pyogenic granuloma. The tip was moved around the base of the lesion in circles. The base of the lesion was cut precisely till the whole mass was entirely excised.

DRUG

Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy-treated group (control group): This group consisted of ten patients treated with injections of sclerosing agent. After anaesthetizing the surgical site with a local anesthetic agent, The lesion was injected with a 2.5% concentration until it leaked out from the surface, leading to necrosis and spontaneous detachment of the lesion.
