Oral Pyogenic Granuloma
Conditions
Brief summary
Gingival Pyogenic granuloma in the esthetic zone represents an esthetic problem. While surgical treatment may not give the premium esthetic demands, corticosteroid may acheive this balance.
Detailed description
In our practice, the investigators have found the use of topical steroids effectively induced regression of PGs. This protocol has been suggested by published case reports supported by the anti-inflammatory actions corticosteroid. This is a particularly valuable approach for patients who have PG in the esthetic zone allowing the surgeon to keep maximum amount of periodontal tissues.
