Clinical Outcomes of Oral Traumatic Fibroma Removal Using a 980 nm Diode Laser: A Series of Four Cases

This case series evaluates the clinical outcomes of oral fibroma (traumatic fibroma) excision using a 980 nm diode laser in four patients aged between 35 and 78 years (mean age: 54.25 years). The lesions varied from 0.8 to 1.5 cm (mean: 1.025 cm). All patients underwent laser excision with a 980 nm diode laser (2W, continuous wave, contact mode). Postoperative pain, healing time, recurrence, complications, and patient satisfaction were assessed. All cases demonstrated complete fibroma removal, minimal bleeding, uneventful healing within seven to nine days, and no recurrence at six months. Postoperative pain was mild, and patient satisfaction was high. This case series suggests that a 980 nm diode laser is a safe and effective modality for traumatic fibroma removal in the oral cavity.
