Abstract
The pyogenic granuloma is a benign lesion, which shows preference for the upper, anterior and buccal gingiva. The treatment consists of surgical excision, however, it may produce esthetic deformities. Patient V.G.V., 43 years old, revealed a recurrent lesion in the facial gingiva of element 21. Excisional biopsy and coverage of the exposed area by means of zetaplasty and rotated flap designs were performed. Postoperative results showed appropriate esthetic gingiva and no recurrence of the lesion. It was concluded that the employed technique may serve as a treatment option to gingival lesions in esthetics areas.
