inflammatory
and hyperplastic gingival responses during orthodontic treatment are common. These
may complicate the actual treatment and may require periodontal
therapy. The present report
describes the development
of an interproximal
enlarged peripheral giant cell granuioma
during
orthodontic treatment, resulting in migration and separation of the neighboring teeth and resorption
of the interproximal
alveolar septum and molar root. The lesion was excised and the bone was
curetted; this led to spontaneous
migration of the involved teeth to their natural positions. (AM .J

eripheral giant ceil granuloma is considered a benign hyperplastic reaction of the gingival or
periodontal tissues to trauma or irritation.’ Traumatic
factors contributing to development of the lesion include
periodontal pockets, extractions, periodontal surgery,
denture irritation, and malposed teeth.2.3 Development
may take months, and the lesion can reach a diameter
of 2 cm. The pressure of the growing mass of tissue
occasionally causes migration and spacing of the teeth.”
Histologically, the mass is typically covered with a
stratified squamous epithelium and with a fibrillar connective tissue stroma containing ovoid or spindleshaped cells beneath. Interspersed within the connective
tissue are multinucleated giant cells resembling osteoclasts i with numerous capillaries often present at the periphery of the lesion. In addition, inflammatory infiltrate
containing polymorphonuclear cells, lymphocytes, and
plasma cells is commonly seen in the tissue.5 In most
cases the lesion is confined to the gingivae and there
is DOdestruction of the underlying bone. ’ However, the
giant cells can be stimulated by the inflammatory response and act as osteoclasts, resulting in alveolar bone
resorption. 5z Surgical excision including the entire base
of the growth is the recommended treatment. Persistence after surgery is common and, because of this, the
lesion was once inconectly referred to as a tumor.7
The present article reports an uncommon phenomenon in which orthodontic treatment may have played
a role in the initiation of a peripheral giant cell granuloma. The clinical and histopathologic features and

CASE
REPORT
An 1 1%year-old
boy was accepted in May 1983 for
orthodontic treatment at the Tel Aviv University School of
Dental Medicine. The patient’s general health was good,
with no significant medical history. Developmental
and
skeletal stages of his teeth were in accordance with his
chronologic age (early permanent de&ion).
Intraoral examination revealed relatively fair oral hygiene, two small
amalgam restorations, no caries, and some localized marginal
gingivitis.
Molar relationships were classified as slightly Class III
on both sides, Class III in the left canines, and Class I in the
right canines. There was an anterior crossbite refationship
between the maxillary central incisors and the left lateral
incisor with the six anterior mandibular teeth (Fig. 1, A). The
lower left first premolar was in a crossbite relationship with
the two maxillary left premolars. There was a 1 mm negative
overjet, a 30% overbite, and a maxillary midline deviation
of 3 mm to the right. From initial contact lo maximal dental
contact, some forward shift of the mandible was registered.
Small facets of attrition were present on the buccal cusps of
the lower first permanent molars and second premolars and
on the lingual cusps of the corresponding teeth in the maxilla.
The maxillary arch was round, with 6 mm of crowding; the
mandibular arch was ovoid, with 1.5 mm lack of space for
the left canine and two premolars.
Radiographic examination did not reveal any pathologic
findings (Fig. 1, B). The trabecular structure of the aiveolar
bone and the width of the periodontal ligament were within
normal limits, and no caries was visible. The buds of the
third molars were missing.
Cephalometric analysis did not reveal any marked signs
of skeletal Class III discrepancy (SNA, 81.5 degrees; SNB,
8 1.5 degrees). The mandibular incisors were labially proclined and the maxillary incisors were slightly lingually in-

clined (i to NB, 27 degrees; 1 to NA, 2.5 degrees). The lower
third of the face was slightly reduced in height.
The case was classified as a dental Class III with crowding. owever, the possibility existed that at a later stage it
could express itself as a more skeletal Class III malocclusion.
The treatment plan was based on a slight expansion of the
maxillary and mandibular arches, advancement of the maxiIIary incisors, and retroclination of the mandibular incisors.
In June 1983, bands with double tubes were cemented
onto the maxillary and mandibular first molars. The bands
were properly fitted with no overhanging or impinging margins into the gingival sulcus. Edgewise brackets, 0.022 x
0.028 inch, were bonded on the remaining teeth. At a later
date a stopped 0.018 inch round wire was attached to the
mandibular arch and a stopped 0.018 X 0.025 inch rectangular wire was attached to the maxillary arch. Medium elastics, % inch, were applied 24 hours a day from the distal
aspect of the maxillary molars to a soldered hook placed
between the mandibular canines and incisors.
After 1 year of orthodontic treatment, crowding was eliminated, the anterior and lateral crossbites were corrected, and
good interdental relations were established. At this time a

small gingival proliferation was observed in the interdental
space between the left first mandibular molar and second
premolar. The lesion was asymptomatic, but bieeding occurred on probing. The area was examined for possibie local
irritation or trauma (i.e., food impingement, occlusal trauma,
or excessive orthodontic force). but the findings were negative. A thorough scaling of the area was carried out to eliminate any subgingival irritation, but the soft tissue enlargement
persisted. The patient was referred to the department of periodontology for further treatment of the lesion.
The lesion between the lower left first molar and second
premolar appeared as a red soft mass with a rough pebbly
surface that nearly reached the height of the marginal ridge.
The mass was confined to the interproximal zone and did not
extend to the !ingual or buccal surfaces. The lesion was ulcerated on the surface and bled profusely on probing. Radiographic examination showed slight resorption of the crestal
bone between the two teeth.
The lesion was clinically diagnosed as a localized gingival
hyperplasia or possibly a pyogenic granuloma. The gingival

tissue was removed with dental curets, and at the same time
the roots were scaled and planed to eliminate future sources
of gingival irritation. No histologic examination was carried
out. Healing was uneventful. Orthodontic treatment was continued after removal of the band from the left first molar 2
weeks later.
Three months later the patient returned to the clinic complaining that the gingivae were swollen. Examination revealed
that the lesion had recurred but this time in an enlarged form.
It now appeared as a bluish red sessile growth, 2.5 cm wide,
extending into the alveolar mucosa on both the lingual and
buccal sides; its surface was rough and ulcerated (Fig. 2, A).
There was a space of 2 to 3 mm between the premolar and
the first molar. Radiographic examination showed resorption
of the interproximal alveolar bone (Fig. 2, B).
On the basis of clinical appearance, rate of growth, effect
on the neighboring teeth, and superficial bone resorption, a
provisional diagnosis of peripheral giant cell granuloma was
made. There were no systemic or local symptoms or signs
that could support the diagnosis of a more destructive condition.
Since the orthodontic goals had been achieved at this
stage, orthodontic treatment was terminated, the bands were
removed, and an upper Hawley appliance was inserted for
retention. To avoid irritation of the lesion, no retainer was
placed in the lower arch.
A surgical procedure was performed in the area to remove
the lesion and all remaining interproximal tissue above the
alveolar bone. Histologic examination of the biopsy specimen showed features consistent with peripheral giant cell
granuloma (Fig. 3, A and B). Healing was uneventful, but
the diastema between the two teeth remained unchanged
(Fig. 4).

Ten weeks after the surgical procedure the patient was
seen again at the clinic with a lesion that appeared very similar
to the one that was removed. It was about 2.5 cm wide and
had expanded symmetrically both lingually and buccaliy. Radiographic examination showed further bone resorption and
minimal resorption of the molar root (Fig. 5). It was decided
that the surgical procedure should be repeated, but this time
the bone associated with the soft tissue lesion was vigorously
filed and curetted. Postoperative healing was uneventful. Histologic examination revealed features similar to those of the
original lesion.

Follow-up examinations during the subsequent months
revealed that the space between the two teeth closed 3 months
after surgery and the alveolar bone stabilized without any
appreciable regeneration (Fig. 6, A to C).
The development of the lesion in the present case
and its relationship to the orthodontic treatment are
difficult to explain. Throughout the treatment period
the area was subjected to only the trauma and irritation
exerted by the orthodontic movement. To associate this
with the development of the lesion would be debatable.
However, since to the best of our knowledge the area
was not exposed to any other external or environmental
influences, such an association cannot be ruled out.
The nature of the lesion is not similar to that of the
inflammatory hyperplastic gingival lesions often noted
during orthodontic treatment. Barack, Staffileno, and
Sadowsky” described an inflammatory proliferative and
destructive lesion caused by subgingival plaque during
orthodontic treatment. The latter is consistent with the
features of a pyogenic granuloma, whereas a peripheral
giant cell granuloma is essentially granulomatous in
nature with the additional characteristic presence of
osteoclast-like giant cells.
Peripheral giant ceil granuioma may vary considerably in clinical appearance. It always appears on the
gingiva or the alveolar processes, frequently anterior to
molars. The lesion is pedunculated or sessile and seems
to be originating deeper in the tissue than many other
superficial lesions in this area, such as the fibrous hyperplasia or pyogenic granuloma. Unlike the central
giant cell granuloma and the lesions associated with
von Reckiinghausen’s disease of the bone, which pre-

Case report
This case emphasizes that during surgical excision
care should be taken to remove the entire base of the
lesion. If only the superficial portion is removed, recurrence should be expected. In the past, it was common practice to remove the adjacent tooth at the time
of excision to prevent possible recurrence. This is contraindicated.
Although spacing between the teeth is a common
sequela of peripheral giant cell granuloma, the spontaneous closing of the space immediately after its resolution in the present case is noteworthy. Apparently
the pressure caused by the proliferating lesion was sufficient to overcorhe the connecting transseptal fibers and
displace the first molar distally. The fact that the int&-proximal diastema closed rapidly after resolution of
the lesion supports the observation that, after periodontal surgery, migrated teeth may tend to spontaneously reposition themselves.’ This may be due to the
elimination of edema and granulation tissue and regeneration of the gingival and transseptal collagen fibers.
