Pyogenic granuloma is a reactive tumor-like lesion usually appears as localized solitary nodule with a sessile or pedunculated base and shows predilection for gingiva. Most commonly the line of treatment is the accurate excision as well as elimination of contributing factors considerably decreases recurrence probabilities. Here is the series of four cases of pyogenic granuloma on gingiva which were managed by excisional biopsy and were diagnosed as pyogenic granuloma after histopathological examination.
