    Author: Purwar P, Dixit J, Sheel V, Goel MM.
    Journal: BMJ Case Rep; 2015 Jan 09; 2015():. PubMed ID: 25576506.
    Abstract:
    Granuloma gravidarum (GG), an inflammatory lesion, develops in the oral mucosa of pregnant women in response to chronic low-grade irritants and hormonal factors. A persistent granuloma gravidarum post partum and appropriate management strategies are discussed. Patients must be encouraged to undergo regular dental check-ups during the gestational period. Simple oral hygiene measures are highly effective in combating most oral lesions encountered in pregnancy.
