Lobular capillary hemangioma or pyogenic granuloma is a benign non-neoplastic lesion that is mainly presented as a tissue growth in response to irritation or trauma. It is located on the skin or on the mucous membrane, with the oral mucosa being the most frequent, with the gingiva standing out, but also appearing in other places such as the lips, buccal mucosa, palate and tongue, the latter being a very unusual location. This is a report of the case of a pediatric patient who underwent a surgical procedure of frenotomy, and who subsequently presented a lesion due to trauma possibly as a consequence of local anesthesia, which forced an excisional biopsy, the histopathological diagnosis being capillary lobular hemangioma or pyogenic granuloma. Likewise, a literature review of this type of pathology is presented, with emphasis on its location in the tongue.

Focal fibrous hyperplasia is a common pathology in the oral cavity, which is characterized by a reactive inflammatory hyperplastic lesion in response to chronic trauma. Although focal fibrous hyperplasia is a common lesion, it frequently does not acquire the corresponding importance by professionals, and it is essential to have a clear understanding of the proper diagnosis and management of this pathology.

von Willebrand disease is the most common inherited bleeding disorder, caused by von Willebrand factor deficiency, which causes defective platelet adhesion and aggregation. It is characterized by a prolonged bleeding time and partial thromboplastin time, with low levels of factor VIII, and increased capillary fragility, but with a normal platelet count. Dental treatment in a patient with von Willebrand disease must be individualized according to the severity of the patient’s condition, as well as coordinated with the hematologist, who must determine the type of disease and the need for factor replacement therapy, prior to the patient management. Through this bibliographic review, it wants to reinforce the dentist’s knowledge of this bleeding disorder, since this can prevent or minimize possible bleeding complications during dental treatment.
