A 6-year-old girl was referred for assessment of an oral soft tissue swelling in the anterior maxilla. An asymptomatic, large, erythematous soft tissue mass developed on the alveolar ridge following the loss of the deciduous upper central incisor. Following excision of the lesion, a diagnosis of pyogenic granuloma was confirmed. This case demonstrates the unusual presentation of a pyogenic granuloma in a younger child. These lesions can arise as a reactive response to various stimulating factors and can grow rapidly. Management often involves excision but recurrence risk can be high. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Dentists should not only be aware of the common oral soft tissue changes but should also familiarize themselves with lesions that can occur atypically in children.

Pyogenic granuloma is a benign inflammatory hyperplasia of connective tissue. It depicts an overzealous tissue response to a known stimulus or injury and is commonly found in the gingiva, especially in the anterior maxilla, and rarely on lips, oral mucosa, and tongue. It is commonly seen during the second, third, and fourth decade in females, with predilection in the third decade. This case report depicts the unusual presentation of pyogenic granuloma of the lower lip in an 11-year-old male child following a positive history of trauma and lip biting, which was successfully managed by excision under local anesthesia.
