Non-invasive treatment of pyogenic granuloma by using Nd:YAG laser

Pyogenic granuloma is a 'reactive lesion' in the oral cavity caused due to hormonal imbalance or poor oral hygiene. There are different methods to excise this lesion but most successful is treatment with lasers. Currently, there are different lasers available commercially and are used by clinicians to excise this lesion. In this case report, a 20-year-old female patient reported to the department with a complaint of overgrowth of gingiva on lower canine. It was excised by using neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet laser and the patient was asked for regular follow-up after 1 week and 6 months. The excised lesion was sent to pathology where the lesion was confirmed to be pyogenic granuloma. The patient reported no pain, no blood loss during or postsurgery. Laser is a useful technique for excisional surgeries; it is safe, effective and reduces time of treatment as well as time of healing.
