Therapeutic effects of diode laser on vascular epulis in esthetic area

Tie-Lou Chen, Xiao-Man Wang, Xin-Hai Zhang, Jun Chen, Jin LiuJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology 2021 25(1):75-77 Vascular epulis is a rare clinical disease. In our study, a case of vascular epulis in the cosmetic area was treated by diode laser, without recurrence and obvious inflammation in the surgical site 5 years after surgery. This case report indicates that the excision of vascular epulis in the cosmetic area of the anterior teeth by diode laser could be an alternatively safe and complementary approach in lieu of conventional surgery.
