[…] back Definition and clinical picture Gingival tissue overgrowth (Celsus/Galen: "disease on the gingival surface"; Axhausen: "no epulis without a tooth") These tumour-like lesions, designated as epulis, are rather: Due to chronic trauma or inflammation [med-college.de]

However, at the five months visit the patient’s compliance had improved and there was resolution of the gingival inflammation around the lower teeth (Figure 4). [juniperpublishers.com]

Conventional periodontal treatment, including scaling and root planing was performed to decrease gingival inflammation. [jdentlasers.org]

It can occur as gingivitis, which is inflammation of the gums, or periodontitis ( pyorrhea ), which is loss of bone supporting the teeth which can later cause tooth mobility and loss. [barnaclinic.com]

Nowadays, the most common causes for the appearance of pyogenic granuloma are local trauma such as poor fitting dentures, chronic irritation, food impaction, dental plaque, dental calculus, hormones, drugs, gingival inflammation and pre-existing vascular [scielo.br]

Post-operative discomfort is also less compared to conventional surgical procedures, which is evident from the current report. [14] In the present report, we can see that there was no adverse effect from the use of the laser. [jdentlasers.org]

Periodontics is the dental specialty specializing in periodontal or gum diseases. Periodontal disease is a bacterial infection of the tissues surrounding and supporting the teeth in the jaws. [barnaclinic.com]

DOI: 10.19080/ADOH.2018.09.555770 Abstract Introduction: Any localised swelling of the gingivae may be called an epulis although its usage is normally restricted to developmental or reactive swellings of the gingivae or periodontal ligament origin. [juniperpublishers.com]

Marginal periodontitis is of causal significance in its aetiology; microtrauma is also a possible cause. Often a short case history and a tendency for recurrence. [med-college.de]

Conventional periodontal treatment, including scaling and root planing was performed to decrease gingival inflammation. [jdentlasers.org]

After the excision, periodontal dressing was applied to avoid trauma and improve healing. [scielo.br]

It can occur as gingivitis, which is inflammation of the gums, or periodontitis ( pyorrhea ), which is loss of bone supporting the teeth which can later cause tooth mobility and loss. [barnaclinic.com]

The surface may be ulcerated. Aetiology: Ill-fitting denture; inflammation secondary to functional activity (speech and mastication). #pic# 2. Traumatic fibromas Ubiquitous in the oral cavity, often at the level of the occlusal plane. [med-college.de]

Histological sections revealed a fragment of mucosa lined by parakeratinized stratified squamous epithelium, predominantly ulcerated, with patches of atrophy. On the surface, there were fibrin and large amounts of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. [scielo.br]

A thickened stratified squamous epithelium layer overlaid the lesion and was ulcerated due to the trauma associated with eating or tooth brushing. There was no evidence of malignancy. [jdentlasers.org]
