Abstract : Pyogenic granuloma is frequently encountered, benign vascular lesion, distinguished by its rapid proliferation and hypervascular nature that can affect individuals of all ages. It typically occurs on both the skin and mucous membranes, with trauma being the most frequent cause.. The development of a pyogenic granuloma progresses through three stages, with bleeding being a hallmark symptom throughout. Owning to its characteristic appearance, pyogenic granuloma is frequently misidentified as other vascular lesions, solid tumors, or soft tissue infections. This case report describes Pyogenic granuloma located on the mandibular anterior gingiva.

Keywords : Pyogenic Granuloma, Anterior Gingiva, Tumour.
