Pyogenic granuloma is vascular growth occurring on skin and mucous membrane. The term pyogenic granuloma is actually said to be a misnomer as it is neither associated with pus nor it represents granuloma histologically. Oral pyogenic granuloma commonly occurs on gingiva but can, also, be seen in relation to lips, palate, tongue and buccal mucosa. This case report presents a case of lobular capillary haemangioma variant of pyogenic granuloma occurring interdentally in relation to palatal aspect of maxillary right second premolar and first molar.
