Description Background: The aim of the study to evaluate the use of buccal sliding flap to cover the bone after excision of the
tumor.
Materials and Methods: Forty patients who have pyogenic granuloma on the gingiva, the patient's age range from
ten to eighteen years (mean age 19 years), the cases were selected irrespective of sex or economic status. Surgical
excision of the pyogenic granuloma and the exposed bone was covered by a sliding mucoperiosteal flap.
Results: Thirty seven patients have good results and the gingival condition return to normal within one month
postoperatively.
Conclusion: The sliding mucoperiosteal flap is superior alternative to periodontal pack to cover the exposed bone
after surgical excision of the pyogenic granuloma.
