Oral inflammation and treatment
Typical inflammations of the mouth are defined as primary if it is caused by oral causes, or secondary if it is caused by other diseases.
Stomatitis is an acute or chronic inflammation of the oral mucosa. It develops due to the presence of various microbes in the oral mucosa that may cause infection.
Hemorrhagic stomatitis is manifested by flushing and swelling of the bleeding gingival mucosa. It is often due to a general disease, poisoning or vitamin deficiency. In Greek, stoma "mouth", itis "inflammation" means. Stomatitis broadly includes all inflammations in the mouth. In its narrowest sense, it is limited to the actual oral cavity mucosa.
If the inflammation is tongue, it is called glossitis and gingivitis is called gingivitis. The oral mucosa is easily ill for direct oral reasons. In addition, the first symptoms of some general diseases occur in the mouth. Therefore, oral inflammations are divided into two as primary and secondary. The first develops independently of other diseases. Secondary ones occur after illness of other organs.
Major types of oral inflammation include fever with exudate, ulcer, gangrene, hemorrhage and aphthitis.
Fever
It is the most common and least harmful species. It is caused by the bacterial flora in the mouth, which is capable of making diseases due to various general and local conditions. It can be seen at any age. It occurs especially in children who are not well-nourished, in teething babies and during rash diseases such as measles, scarlet fever, chicken pox and rubella. The main reasons in adults are dental stones and the use of inappropriate dental prostheses.
Digestive disorders, high fever, abusive food, very hot drinks and smoking can also cause this type of inflammation in the mouth. Another common cause of mouth fever is vitamin deficiency. Diseases caused by severe vitamin deficiencies such as scurvy and beriberi are no longer on the agenda of countries with balanced nutrition awareness and opportunities. However, hidden vitamin deficiency diseases are seen due to insufficient and unbalanced nutrition or dysfunction in the body.
Fever usually occurs with redness in the oral cavity. Commonly and uniform redness of the tongue and lips is often seen. The patient hears dryness and burning in the mouth. Swallowing and chewing movements become difficult. Such oral inflammations may be treated using germicidal mouthwashes. In addition, mild drugs and antimicrobial drugs that eliminate the sensation of pain and burning can be helpful. If inflammation is due to vitamin deficiency, the treatment is based on meeting the deficient vitamins.
Exudative oral inflammation
It occurs in the form of a heavy inflammation of the mucosa over white. It is usually the onset of ulcerated stomatitis. The main causes are the same as those of mouth fever. Some occupational diseases and chronic poisoning caused by chemicals also cause this type of inflammation in the mouth. Lead and mercury intoxications lead to gingiva and sometimes inflammation of the tongue. Inflammation in the mouth is treated together with the disease that affects the whole body.
Ulcerative inflammation
It is heavier than mouth fever and exudate oral inflammation. It usually occurs in the form of an epidemic and is easily transmitted if the oral cavity is not cleaned. Inflammation begins in dentists. It then spreads all over the mouth. It causes a yellowish exudate and painful swelling spreading to the tooth roots and even to the lips. Ulcerative oral inflammation may occur due to pharyngeal infections such as Fusobacterium and Vincent's angina caused by spirochetes. In this type of oral inflammation, in which ulcers and wounds heal very slowly after the first bloating phase, germicidal mouthwashes are not sufficient. There is also a general treatment based on antibiotics and sulfamides; cortisone may be required in some cases.
Intra-oral inflammation with gangrene
It is the last stage of ulcer type. It occurs when the organism is extremely weak and causes tissue death.
Intraoral inflammation with bleeding
It is an inflammation of the oral mucosa that occurs with bleeding. It is not usually caused by a specific cause in the mouth. Coagulation disorders are a symptom of common diseases such as liver and cardiovascular diseases, intoxications and vitamin deficiencies (niacin and vitamin C deficiency). Acute leukemia is also common during diseases such as anemia, typhoid fever, malaria due to vitamin B12 deficiency. Treatment depends on the general disease.
Intraocular inflammation
It is often caused by viruses. Usually in infants, pregnant women and digestion
disorder. It can be said that this disease has an allergic dimension in some people, considering that aphthous formations are repeated with the ingestion of certain foods such as walnuts, almonds and strawberries.
The disease occurs with tremors and fever. Fluid-filled blisters, which then turn into very painful ulcers, are seen in the oral cavity. The disease is rapid and heals in 1-2 weeks. In addition to regional treatment in the form of mouthwash, general treatment with antibiotics and cortisone is applied.
Intraoral inflammation due to chronic bacterial and fungal infections
Acti-nomyces is an important group of bacteria that cause inflammation in the oral cavity. These bacteria settle in the bone and muscle tissue in the mouth. The pus from the fistulas they form contains a large amount of typical particles. The entry paths of these bacteria are usually dental caries.
Thrush is a common fungal inflammation in the mouth. Candida albicans species develops in the oral cavity mucosa with the development of a microscopic fungus. It is similar to cut milk that can cover the gums, tongue, cheek inner surfaces and tonsils. White areas appear in the mouth which tend to merge with each other. Under these easily removable formations, a red surface appears. Thrush is more common in newborns. It can be easily treated with locally administered fungicides and methylene blue. But this disease can also occur in the elderly who have been weakened and the organism's defensive capabilities are reduced. In this case, the infection can spread to the deep tissues, namely the respiratory and digestive mucosa.
Secondary oral inflammation
It occurs due to a general disease. Rash diseases such as scarlet fever, measles, rubella and chicken pox, hemorrhagic diseases such as scurvy and hemophilia, leukemia, agranulocytosis and blood diseases such as anemia due to vitamin B12 deficiency are seen during various occupational diseases such as mercury, bismuth, lead, silver and copper. .
The main oral infections caused by specific microbes are: first stage lesion in syphilis; ulcers in tuberculosis and inflammations associated with stretch marks (tuberculosis stomatitis); deep nodular formations (leprosy stomatitis) ulcers in time; gonococci-related inflammation in gonorrhea; oral infections due to diphtheria, snake and impetigo.
