Removal of the etiological factor, followed by surgical excision is the preferred treatment for Telangiectatic granuloma. But relapses can occur. For this reason, treatment with other techniquessuch as cryotherapy, electrocautery and laser has been investigated.The present article describes treatment of telangiectatic granulomaby removal of the etiological factor the mobile tooth with local factorsby surgical excision of the lesion using electrocautery.
