Abstract
|
|
|
|
Peripheral giant cell granulomas (PGCGs) are reactive, exophytic gingival growths, caused by regional irritation and chronic trauma. PGCGs are diagnosed through histopathologic evaluations and appear analogous to other soft tissue lesions. This report presents the case of a PGCG associated with the ectopic eruption of a maxillary central incisor. Following an excisional biopsy, the patient healed fully without recurrence for at least 1 year.
