Pyogenic granuloma subsequent to injury of a primary tooth. A case report.
This paper shows a case of pyogenic granuloma occurring as a post-traumatic oral lesion, in a 19-month-old patient. The palatally chamfered fracture of a maxillary primary incisor together with the continuous sucking of a dummy could have caused the special shape of the pyogenic granuloma over the remaining coronal fragment.
