RESUMO
Gingival enlargements are commonly seen especially localized. Most of these enlargements are non-neoplastic and rather reactive by nature. On clinical examination, it is not always possible to differentiate one specific gingival enlargement from other. Clinically, differentiating one from the other as a specific entity is often not possible. To identify these lesions, histopathological examination is required. One of such seen entities is peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) that is diagnosed by histopathological examination. Peripheral ossifying is a reactive benign lesion. A clinical report of 23 years old male with POF maxillary left canine and premolar region is reported with treatment and 1-year follow-up.

Periodontitis is a one of the commonly occurring disease. Various therapies have been used and suggested for its treatment which includes nonsurgical, antimicrobial, and surgical therapy. In the recent years, lasers have been used frequently for periodontal therapy. Lasers have been applied for debridement, reshaping as well as the reduction of bacterial load in the pocket. This case series represent the use of lasers for exposure of impacted teeth, second stage surgery for dental implant, and vestibuloplasty. The surgical procedure with a 810 nm diode laser has been described. The laser-assisted procedures provided excellent results without complications as well as high patient and clinician satisfaction.

Along with the better understanding of the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases, the treatment modalities for various periodontal diseases have also gone a step ahead. One of the most important and currently unsolved problems in clinical periodontics is the predictable successful treatment of inadequate width of attached gingiva. Recently, importance has been given to the use of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) for predictably treating periodontal diseases. PRF is an intimate assembly of glycan chains, glycoproteins, and cytokines. These are enmeshed in a slowly polymerized fibrin network which has the potential to accelerate soft and hard tissue healing. This article presents the clinical results of treatment of inadequate width of attached gingiva with PRF.
