Pyogenic granuloma of the incisive papilla: A rare case report

Journal Title: Cumhuriyet Dental Journal - Year 2019, Vol 22, Issue 3

Abstract

Pyogenic granuloma is a non-neoplastic reactive growth commonly found in the oral cavity and skin. It is benign in origin and may arise due to factors like trauma, local minor irritation and an imbalance in the levels of hormones. Oral pyogenic granuloma occurs commonly in young females in second decade of their life possibly due to hormonal influences leading to changes in the vascular system. Oral pyogenic granuloma presents itself as a smooth or lobulated growth, mostly pedunculated but occasionally with a sessile growth. The colour of pyogenic granuloma may vary from pink, red and purple and this variation in colour is related to the age of the lesion. Clinically the most common site for oral pyogenic granuloma is gingiva, lips, tongue and buccal mucosa. This report presents a unique location for oral pyogenic granuloma at incisive papilla. Palatal pyogenic granuloma is rarely reported.
