Abstract :
Background: Inflammatory hyperplasia/reactive oral lesions, including Peripheral Ossifying Fibroma (POF), Epulis Fissuratum (EF), and Pyogenic Granuloma (PG), develop from chronic irritation or trauma. Though benign, they mimic other pathologies, requiring accurate diagnosis and effective management for optimal outcomes.Objective: To present a series of three clinically distinct cases of inflammatory hyperplasia, successfully managed with diode laser excision.Case Presentation: Three patients aged 38 to 72 years presented with intraoral soft tissue growths in different locations, clinically diagnosed as inflammatory hyperplasia. Each lesion was excised using 810 nm diode laser after routine investigations. Postoperative healing was uneventful.Conclusion: Laser excision of inflammatory hyperplasia offers a reliable, precise, and patient-friendly approach with minimal discomfort and excellent healing outcomes.
