Abstract

Vascular anomalies comprise a widely heterogeneous group of tumors and malformations. Haemangioma is the most common benign tumor of vascular origin of the head and neck region. However, it is not a common pathologic entity in the oral cavity. The possible sites of occurrence in oral cavity are lips, tongue, buccal mucosa and palate. It is probably developmental rather than neoplastic in origin. Despite its benign origin and behaviour, it is always of clinical importance to the dental profession and requires appropriate management. This case report presents a rare case of capillary haemangioma on the palatal gingiva in a 14-year old female.
