Abstract
Introduction: Peripheral Giant Cell Granulomas (PGCGs) are benign oral cavity tumors, reactive in nature, caused by local trauma or irritation.
Case presentation: A 51-year-old female patient presented with a soft tissue lesion related to implant site #19. Excisional biopsy was completed, and the soft tissue mass was diagnosed as a Peripheral Giant Cell Granuloma (PGCG). The biopsy led to absence of keratinized tissue and vestibular depth around the implant site. After the initial healing phase of the biopsy, a free gingival graft was completed and following the maturation of the soft tissue the cement retained implant supported prosthesis was converted into a screw retained implant supported prosthesis.
Conclusion: With a combined periodontal and restorative approach increased KT, adequate vestibular depth, no recurrence of the PGCG was achieved as well as an easily accessible screw retained implant supported prosthesis.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry will
publish manuscripts concerned with all aspects of clinical periodontology,
restorative dentistry, and implantology. This includes pertinent research
as well as clinical methodology (their interdependence and relationship
should be addressed where applicable); proceedings of relevant symposia
or conferences; and quality review papers. Original manuscripts are considered for publication on the condition that they have not been published
or submitted for publication elsewhere.
