What is the growth on the gums indicate?
Patient: I had growth removed from my gums today  and the dentist who removed it said he had never seen anything like it in 30 years of being a dentist   he sent it off for biopisiy      no pain  had it for several months   had x ray of the area about a month ago   and nothing was found    any thoughts? Doctor: Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.The growth over the gums can be a pyogenic granuloma or peripheral ossifying fibroma. Nothing to be panic, consult a good oral physician and get a second opinion. Your dentist might have not seen such cases, so take opinion from another physician. Once the biopsy report comes we can treat further, if the lesion reoccurs.I hope my answer will help you, take care.
