It was observed commonly in the maxillary incisor area with the rate of 53.3%. The degree of gingivitis (GI) at the gingival granuloma site was related statistically to the gingival hypertrophy (p<0.05).  GI, SBI at the surgical site had a significant decrease after 1 month post-op, and continuing to decrease after 2 months post-op. The difference was significant statistic with p < 0.001. The recurrence rate of gingival granuloma was 6.7%.
