  2. Epulis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epulis

    This type of epulis is neither pyogenic ("pus producing") nor a true granuloma, but it is a vascular lesion.About 75% of all pyogenic granulomas occur on the gingiva, [2] growing beneath the gingival margin, [8] although they may also occur elsewhere in the mouth or other parts of the body (where the term epulis is inappropriate).

  3. Pyogenic granuloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyogenic_granuloma

    The name "pyogenic granuloma" is misleading, as it is neither pyogenic or a true granuloma. Rather, it is a capillary hemangioma of lobular subtype, which is why such a lesion is prone to bleeding. [5] It is also not truly pyogenic (pus-producing), as the cause is hormonal or traumatic and has no association with infection or pus production.

  4. Peripheral ossifying fibroma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_ossifying_fibroma

    Instead, the three are associated with each other because they appear frequently on gingiva: pyogenic granuloma and peripheral giant cell granuloma. Some researchers believe peripheral ossifying fibromas to be related to pyogenic fibromas and, in some instances, are the result of a pyogenic granuloma which has undergone fibrosis and calcification.

    Peripheral giant-cell granuloma (PGCG) is an oral pathologic condition that appears in the mouth as an overgrowth of tissue due to irritation or trauma. Because of its overwhelming incidence on the gingiva, the condition is associated with two other diseases, pyogenic granuloma and peripheral ossifying fibroma. These three diseases are ...

  9. Gingival enlargement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gingival_enlargement

    Gingival enlargement has a multitude of causes. The most common is chronic inflammatory gingival enlargement, when the gingivae are soft and discolored. This is caused by tissue edema and infective cellular infiltration caused by prolonged exposure to bacterial plaque, and is treated with conventional periodontal treatment, such as scaling and root planing.
