Bleeding from the palate after the procedure is one of the most common adverse events. Occasionally, blood can pool beneath the palatal soft tissue, resulting in a hematoma. This report illustrates a case in which a neodymium\u2010doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser was used to manage a palatal hematoma in a male patient aged 55 years. The lesion exhibited near complete resolution 14 days after laser use. Based on limited evidence, this laser may help stop the bleeding at the site of an injured vessel, favorably alter the local inflammatory response, and improve wound healing. Controlled clinical research to validate the protocol applied in this case appears warranted.<\/jats:p>\n
