OBJECTIVE: This article presents a case of inflammatory fibrous hyperplasia (IFH) treated by diode laser surgery, as well as a review of the literature about this pathology.CASE DESCRIPTION: A 55-year-old woman was referred to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul, School of Dentistry, complaining of a discomfort on swallowing due to a soft-tissue mass in the oral cavity that had been developing for approximately 3 years. Intraoral examination revealed multiple exophytic, pedunculated lesions with a smooth surface and pinkish in color, affecting almost the entire right cheek mucosa. The lesion turned out to be a IFH by histopatology. Surgical removal of IFH of the oral mucosa using a diode laser was performed. The lesion was removed in 3 sessions. The patient reported no local symptoms after each irradiation. The clinical appearance 10 months after the last irradiation session demonstrated complete healing and no signals of recurrence.CONCLUSION: Based on the results obtained, we can conclude that diode laser radiation contributes significantly to the advancement of oral surgery and should be considered a valuable resource for the treatment of soft-tissue lesions in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Referral to an oral surgeon for soft-tissue surgery before, during or after orthodontic treatment is not uncommon. This process may delay treatment and could potentially increase the risk of complications. In addition, seeing multiple specialties in different environments may demotivate paediatric or anxious patients from pursuing orthodontic treatment and could also adversely affect patient compliance and satisfaction. The development of laser technology provides a safe and effective alternative, allowing the orthodontic clinician to perform soft-tissue surgery. To date, there are no laser exposure protocols or UK guidelines regarding the use of laser surgery in orthodontics. This case series reports four clinical cases that demonstrate potential advantages of using a diode laser for the management of soft tissue in the field of orthodontics.
