“…They provide a greater precision, a relatively bloodless surgical and postsurgical course, sterilization of the surgical area, minimal swelling and scarring, coagulation, vaporization, minimal or no suturing, and much less or no postsurgical pain. Diode lasers are also used for soft tissue excision [5]. Laser treatment produces less scar tissue contraction, maintains the elastic tissue properties, avoids the use of post-operative medications and accelerates the healing process [2].…”

“…These localized progressive, proliferation of the oral mucosa are seen in response to injury or local irritation from dental plaque, calculus, sharp edge of grossly decayed teeth, fractured teeth, trapped food particles, ill-fitting dental/oral appliances, food impaction and iatrogenic factors (extended flanges of the denture and over extended dental restorations) [1,3]. These non-neoplastic lesions seen on the buccal mucosa along the line of occlusion (subjected to masticatory trauma) causes esthetic and functional problems [2,4,5]. These sessile lesions are seen on the gingiva, lower lip, tongue, hard palate and edentulous alveolar ridges [2,4].…”

Intra-oral fibrous type soft tissue overgrowth is common in oral cavity. It can be either benign or neoplastic lesions. Nonneoplastic type of reactive lesion seen in the oral cavity is caused by the chronic irritation. Focal fibrous hyperplasia is one such lesion which is seen in the line of occlusion. Focal fibrous hyperplasia is also known as irritational fibroma or traumatic fibroma. Proper oral hygiene, removal of etiologic factors and conservative excision will prevent the focal fibrous hyperplasia and its recurrence. Proper diagnosis, management and follow up should be done in these cases.

“…Clinically, PGCG rises from the gums or alveolar mucosa, and it appear as a red, nodular soft tissue mass. It is painless and causes pressure resorption of underlying alveolar bone [8][9][10] . Congenital epulis, also termed as, Congenital granular cell myoblastoma, granular cell fibroelastoma and Granular cell epulis of infancy.…”

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Gingival enlargement is a common characteristic of gums infection. Enlargement of the gums can possibly occur due to numerous factors, comprising of inflammatory disorders as well as certain meditational side effects. Pyogenic granuloma expresses as red, small erythematous papules on pedunculated or rather sessile base. The current study aims to evaluate the cases of epulis and to grade histological types of epulis. METHODOLOGY: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out at oral surgery OPD ISRA Dental College for a six-month duration. The diagnosis of epulis was made on the basis of clinical and histological examination. The research data was recorded on pre-designed proforma, and data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0 (IBM, Corporation). RESULTS: Out of 150 study subjects, 90 (60%) patients were female, while 60 (40%) were male. Majority of the cases in our study were found with a maxillary site (n=93, 62.0%). Most had a size of 2cm-3cm (n=132, 76%). Coral Pink color was the most common in (n=90, 60%) patients, followed by red color (n=45, 30%) and pale color was found in (n=15,10%) of the cases. The histological findings proved pyogenic granuloma was most common in (n=75, 50%) of the cases followed by fibrous epulis (n=63, 42%), peripheral giant cell granuloma (n=6, 4%) and Peripheral ossifying fibroma (n=6, 4%). CONCLUSION: Pyogenic granulomas are the most prevalent reactive lesion. The lesions were more common in females in maxilla portion, and they were mostly found in the second to third decade of life.

“…These characteristics were also found in the present case except that the FFH was with a short peduncle as also reported in some cases. [14,20] Histologically, the FFH contains fibrous connective tissue containing fibroblasts, a few chronic inflammatory cells and surrounded by an atrophic parakeratinized squamous epithelium.In the present case, based on clinical presentation of the lesion and histo-pathological findings, a final diagnosis of FFH has been made. The similarity in clinical appearance of many types of localised reactive lesions in the oral cavity including FFH, pyogenic granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma, peripheral giant cell granuloma etc., pose a challenge in their definitive diagnosis and hence it should be done carefully.…”

“…The similarity in clinical appearance of many types of localised reactive lesions in the oral cavity including FFH, pyogenic granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma, peripheral giant cell granuloma etc., pose a challenge in their definitive diagnosis and hence it should be done carefully. [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] The FFH is a very frequent type of benign connective tissue growth involving different intraoral sites. The present case report describes the occurrence of this lesion at a relatively unusual site (under surface of the tongue) and its excisional biopsy in a 11 year old male child.…”
