Abstract

A benign hyperplastic lesion called an oral telangiectatic granuloma typically develops in the mouth as a result of trauma or long-term irritation. It is a non-neoplastic lesion which is known by various names according to its etiopathogenesis. The term "telangiectatic granulomas" describes the histological characteristics of these tumors, which include subepithelial proliferation of small, thin-walled blood vessels in the loose connective tissues, inflammatory cell infiltrates, and typical granulation tissue. It is an inflammatory lesion that affects skin, oral mucosa, gingiva, lips, tongue & skin. The term pyogenic granuloma is actually a misnomer. This case study describes an 18-year-old female patient who experienced swelling in the jaw's mandibular front tooth region for two months. Following an internal bevel gingivectomy, a telangiectatic granuloma was suggested by the histological result. Three months later, there has been no reduction in the keratinized tissue's width. After the etiological factor is eliminated, the sample is surgically excised and sent for a biopsy. Although there is a potential of relapse, this is the recommended course of treatment for Telangiectatic Granuloma.
