Brief Summary
Pyogenic granuloma is a common tumor-like growth of the oral cavity considered to be non-neoplastic in nature. They usually present as a reactive lesion occur in response to chronic and recurring tissue injury, in which capillaries are very prominent commonly seen arising from interdental gingiva. Pyogenic granuloma may occur in all ages, with a peak age of incidence in the second decade of life, more common in young adult females, possibly because of vascular effects of female hormones.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Postoperative pain was evaluated (NRS)
Postoperative pain intensity will be perceived on the 2nd and 7th days using the ten-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) interpreted as 0 grade (No pain), 1-3 grade (mild pain), 4-6 grade (moderate pain) and 7-10 grade (severe pain)
3 months
Recurrence rate
Patients will be recalled monthly for 3 months after the end of treatment to evaluate if recurrent occur or not.
3 months
Patient compliance (VAS).
compliance of patients will be assessed on a scale from 1 to 10
3 months

Study Arms (2)
Group 1: Laser-treated group
ACTIVE COMPARATOR10 patients will be treated by laser surgery to remove oral granuloma
Sclerotherapy-treated group (group 2)
ACTIVE COMPARATORThis group was made up of ten patients who were treated with injections of sclerosing agent to remove pyogenic granuloma
Interventions
Laser-treated group (test group): This group consisted of ten patients treated using diode lasers. The diode laser was operated in continuous wave mode with an output power of 3 W in contact mode to excise the pyogenic granuloma. The tip was moved around the base of the lesion in circles. The base of the lesion was cut precisely till the whole mass was entirely excised.
Sclerotherapy-treated group (control group): This group consisted of ten patients treated with injections of sclerosing agent. After anaesthetizing the surgical site with a local anesthetic agent, The lesion was injected with a 2.5% concentration until it leaked out from the surface, leading to necrosis and spontaneous detachment of the lesion.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- All the subjects were principally diagnosed based on history and clinical features such as oral pyogenic granuloma are selected for this study. Radiographic evaluation was also done to rule out any bony involvement.
- The sizes of participants' lesions were not less than 5 mm. • Age \> 18 years
You may not qualify if:
- Patients were excluded if they had uncontrolled diabetes, renal diseases, coagulation disorders or were allergic to any of the sclerosing drug constituents. Immune-compromised patients and pregnant and lactating women were also excluded from the study.
