Introduction: Peripheral Giant Cell Granulomas (PGCGs) are benign oral cavity tumors, reactive in nature, caused by local trauma or irritation.
Case presentation: A 51-year-old female patient presented with a soft tissue lesion related to implant site #19. Excisional biopsy was completed, and the soft tissue mass was diagnosed as a Peripheral Giant Cell Granuloma (PGCG). The biopsy led to absence of keratinized tissue and vestibular depth around the implant site. After the initial healing phase of the biopsy, a free gingival graft was completed and following the maturation of the soft tissue the cement retained implant supported prosthesis was converted into a screw retained implant supported prosthesis.
Conclusion: With a combined periodontal and restorative approach increased KT, adequate vestibular depth, no recurrence of the PGCG was achieved as well as an easily accessible screw retained implant supported prosthesis.
