Peripheral giant cell granuloma, a lesion of the gums, can affect both baby and permanent teeth. Surgical removal was necessary for a large case impacting occlusion and the underlying permanent tooth.

Area of Science:

Oral pathology
Dental surgery
Pediatric dentistry

Background:

Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) typically affects the gingiva or alveolar ridge.
This lesion arises from connective tissue, often in response to local irritation.

Observation:

A rare case of PGCG involving a deciduous molar and its succedaneous tooth is presented.
The PGCG was notably large, causing significant interference with the patient's occlusion.

Findings:

Surgical excision of the PGCG and the affected deciduous first molar was performed.
The underlying permanent first premolar was also involved by the lesion and required removal.

Implications:

This case highlights the potential for PGCG to impact developing permanent teeth.
