Foreign body granuloma in the maxillofacial region: a case report
Vol 33, Issue 6S2, 2019
Abstract
Foreign bodies can penetrate in soft tissues of the maxillofacial region through injuries and cutaneous lacerations from trauma. Most commonly found bodies are glass, metal and wood. We report the case of a 50-year-old male patient who came to our maxillofacial department complaining about the presence of an intraoral nodule located in the right upper gingival mucosa. The patient reported the story of a road accident, three months earlier, falling from a scooter without the aid of a protective helmet.
