Abstract

Odontogenic myxoma represents about 3% to 15.44% of all odontogenic tumors. There is still no consensus on the surgical treatment of this lesion. An alternative treatment for these lesions is the high-power laser, which has advantages over conventional surgical treatments such as precise tissue incision, coagulation during the operation, and postoperative benefits. This is a rare case of a 63-year-old male patient with a peripheral odontogenic myxoma measuring approximately 10 cm in the attached gingiva region of tooth 16 removed with a high-power diode laser (808 nm, 3W, in continuous mode, under constant suction, with 400 µm optical fiber). In the present case, there was no need for suturing, no postoperative discomfort, and minimal bleeding during the procedure. In a 12-month follow-up period, there were no signs of recurrence. It was observed that a high-power diode laser is effective in the treatment of odontogenic myxoma.

期刊介绍： Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology is required reading for anyone in the fields of oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology, oral radiology or advanced general practice dentistry. It is the only major dental journal that provides a practical and complete overview of the medical and surgical techniques of dental practice in four areas. Topics covered include such current issues as dental implants, treatment of HIV-infected patients, and evaluation and treatment of TMJ disorders. The official publication for nine societies, the Journal is recommended for initial purchase in the Brandon Hill study, Selected List of Books and Journals for the Small Medical Library.
