Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a reactive inflammatory hyperplastic oral lesion in response to local irritants. It is the most commonly occurring and a well-known oral lesion by oral physicians that most commonly affects gingiva, followed by lips, buccal mucosa, palate and tongue. "Pyogenic granuloma" term itself is a misnomer. This article presents a report of 2 cases of pyogenic granuloma of the gingiva and their management with a review of literature and also discusses why the term "pyogenic granuloma" is a misnomer.

Pyogenic granuloma is a benign, localized mass of exuberant granulation tissue produced in response to various stimuli. It is inflammatory hyperplasia of oral cavity commonly seen on gingival area and rarely on other parts of oral cavity such as lips, tongue, palate and buccal mucosa. It is seen predominantly in 2nd to 3rd decade of life in young females. Clinically manifesting as small red erythematous exophytic lesion, it must be biopsied to rule out other serious conditions. This article aims to present three cases of extra gingival pyogenic granulomas occurring in rare sites such as buccal mucosa, anterior hard palate and alveolar mucosa of completely edentulous ridge in maxilla. Pyogenic granuloma on buccal mucosa and anterior hard palate were seen in female patients with age of 40 years and 34 years respectively and pyogenic granuloma on alveolar mucosa of edentulous ridge in maxilla was noted in 70 years old male patient. Surgical excision was performed for all the lesion and follow up of one year did not show any recurrence. Please add little description of patient + treatment + followup results.

Oral mucosa frequently encounters exophytic growth. Traumatic or irritation fibroma is a benign exophytic oral lesion that develops secondary to tissue.It is the benign reactive lesion, and the treatment of choice is surgical excision.In this case report we present a case of unusually large irritation or traumatic fibroma in left buccal mucosa.

Purpose: Since the beginning of the Covid 19 outbreak, many signs of the disease have been identified. It is known that Covid 19 uses the mouth area as an entrance to the respiratory tract. As with all diseases, early diagnosis and treatment is effective in the course of the disease in Covid 19. We aimed to identify the oral lesions of Covid 19 for detecting disease at early stages. Methods: Seventy-four patients whom detected Covid 19 in their nasopharyngeal swab were included in this study. Results: Fifty-eight of seventy-four patients had oral lesions. Aphthous-like ulcer was the most common oral lesion (n: 27). Respectively, other findings were erythema (n: 19) and lichen planus (n:12). The most common location of lesions was tongue (n: 23). Respectively, other lesion areas were buccal mucosa (n: 20), gingiva (n:11) and palate (n:4). Conclusion: In the study, more than half of Covid 19 patients had oral lesions. Therefore, oral evaluation is important in early diagnosis in cases whom suspected Covid 19.
