Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) has been given various names over the years such as peripheral giant cell tumor, reparative giant cell granuloma, giant cell epulis, giant cell hyperplasia, and osteoclastoma. It is the most commonly occurring lesion of the jaw developing from periosteum's connective tissue or periodontal membrane. It is predominantly seen in females in the mandibular region and usually in their late 40s. However, we hereby present a rare case of PGCG found in a male, in the maxillary posterior region, and in his early 20s.
COVID-19 has impacted the dental services majorly, and there have been some major changes in the dental treatment protocols. As the dental treatment mostly involves the production of aerosols, dentists and dental patients are at high risk of acquiring and transmitting the virus. To reduce the transmission of SARS CoV-2 through aerosols, preprocedural mouth rinse has been recommended. The use of mouthwashes can help in reducing the viral load. The aim of the present review is to discuss different mouthwashes having virucidal action against COVID-19 virus.
