Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a well known oral lesion which occurs as response of tissue to chronic lowgrade irrititation, traumatic injury, hormonal factors and some drugs. PG occurs cosmetic deformity, recurrent hemorrhage, and functional problems in speaking, swallowing and chewing. Beside this, oral melanin pigmentation on gingiva may cause esthetic problem. A 28-year old female applied to our clinic with nodular gingival enlargement in the maxillary gingiva on the vestibular surface of the right central and lateral incisors. Also she complained from gingival hyperpigmentation in her mandibular and maxillar gingival region. In this case report, we presented the use of surgical Nd:YAG lasers for gingivectomy of soft mass and depigmentation of vestibular gingiva without any complication. Treatment with laser presents minimal postoperative problems, discomfort and scarring.

“…Clinically; these lesions vary in apperance from smooth or lobulated, sensile or pedunculated, ulcerated, may vary in size. 4 PG is usually color varies from red/pink to purple. It occurs more commonly on the anterior areas of maxillary gingiva and can also occur on the buccal mucosa, palate, tongue, lips, and floor of the mouth.…”

“…Among the vascular abnormalities, AVMs mainly occur within the head and neck and affect approximately one in 22 children. 2 AVMs of the head and neck region include soft tissue and intraosseous AVMs. 4 Intraosseous maxillofacial malformations constitute 50% of all vascular malformations.…”

A AB BS ST TR RA AC CT T Large arteriovenous vascular malformations (AVM) of the jaws are relatively rare and potentially life-threatening lesions. When these lesions are not suspected, extraction of teeth or other surgery procedures can be fatal in dentistry. Gingival bleeding seems to be a symptom common to most documented cases. Despite their benign histology, deep lesions can produce serious systemic signs and symptoms due to extensive arteriovenous shunting and soft tissue hypertrophy. Mandibular AVM shows a wide variety of signs and symptoms, such as dental mobility, otalgia, secondary pain due to thrombosis, facial asymmetry, and cosmetic distress. A clinical case report was presented in this study. A 24-year-old girl, seen for gingival bleeding during oral hygiene and facial asymmetry, was found to have a high-flow AVM located around the right mandible. In dental and clinical examination, although she had good oral hygiene, common gingival bleeding was observed. At the mandibular rigth molar region, non-hemorrhagic, gingival granulomatous swelling was noted. Scaling and root planning and polishing was performed to the teeth carefully. The patient was called maintenance phases. During 2 year, no recurrence of the lesion has been seen. Dentists must always consider the possibility and be able to recognize the clinical signs of AVMs in order to propose proper treatment. Because, AVMs of the maxillofacial region give rise to dental emergencies and may cause disfigurement, morbidity, even death. K Ke ey yw wo or rd ds s: : Vascular malformations; dentistry Ö ÖZ ZE ET T Çenelerin geniş arteriovenöz vasküler malformasyonları (AVMs) nadir ve yaşamı tehdit eden lezyonlardır. Bu lezyonlar tespit edilemediği zaman, diş çekimi ya da diğer cerrahi işlemler ölüm-cül olabilir. Çalışılmış vakaların çoğunda dişeti kanaması yaygın bir semptom olarak görülür. Benin histolojisine rağmen, derin lezyonlar yumuşak doku hipertrofisi ve aşırı arteriovenöz damar yumağı nedeniyle ciddi sistemik belirti ve semptomlar gösterir. Alt çene AVM leri kozmetik problemler, fasiyal asimetri, trombozis nedeniyle sekonder ağrı, otalji, dişlerde mobilite gibi geniş bir semptom ve belirti spektrumu gösterir. Bu çalışmada klinik bir vaka raporu sunulmuştur. Fasiyal asimetri ve oral hijyenik bakım esnasında dişeti kanaması olan 24 yaşındaki kadın hastada sağ mandibula çevresinde yerleşimli yüksek akımlı AVM varlığı tespit edildi. Dental ve klinik muayenede, oral hijyen iyi olmasına rağmen, hastada yaygın dişeti kanaması gözlendi. Mandibular sağ molar bölgede, non-hemorajik, granülomatöz dişeti büyümesi kaydedildi. Dikkatli bir şekilde diş taşı temizliği, kök yüzeyi düzleştirme ve polisaj işlemi uygulandı. Hasta idame fazlarına çağrıldı. İki yıl süresince lezyonda hiç nüks görülmedi. Maksillofasiyal bölgenin arteriovenöz vasküler malformasyonları sıklıkla diş hekimliğinde acil durumlara yol açar ve morbidite ve hatta ölümle sonuçla-nabilir. AVM ler nadir lezyonlar olmasına rağmen, diş hekimleri bu olasılığı her zaman göz önünde bulundurmalı ve uyg...
