Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is one of the inflammatory hyperplasia seen in the oral cavity. It is a reactional response to minor trauma or chronic irritation. The most common treatment of PG is surgical excision but alternative approaches such as laser excision have also been proposed especially for pediatric patients.
Herein, we present a case of gingival pyogenic granuloma in a 6-year-old patient. The lesion was excised successfully with diode laser as a conservative and non-stressful method in a pediatric patient.
The use of laser as modern medicine offers a new tool for treatment of oral lesions as comfortable as possible in pediatric patients, which results in less stress and fear in children.
化脓性肉芽肿(PG)是口腔中可见的炎性增生之一。它是对轻微创伤或慢性刺激的一种反应性应答。PG最常见的治疗方法是手术切除,但也有人提出了诸如激光切除等替代方法,特别是对于儿科患者。
在此,我们展示了一例6岁患者的牙龈化脓性肉芽肿病例。该病变通过二极管激光成功切除,这是一种针对儿科患者的保守且无压力的方法。
激光作为现代医学手段,为尽可能舒适地治疗儿科患者的口腔病变提供了一种新工具,这减少了儿童的压力和恐惧。
