Three categories of Plasma Cell Gingivitis (Atypical Gingivostomatitis):
Allergic, Neoplasti, Idiopathic
Clinical presentation of _: Rapid onset of sore mouth, intense erythema with diffuse enlargement and loss of stippling
Plasma Cell Gingivitis
Plasma Cell Gingivitis
This is a diagnosis of exclusion after specific infection or systemic conditions (Crohn’s disease, Wegener’s granulomatosis) are ruled out. Can occur secondary to foreign material
Granulomatous Gingivitis
Clinical presentation of _: solitary or multifocal, red or red-white macules of the interdental paplillae, possibly extending onto attached gingiva
Granulomatous Gingivitis
This is a clinical term only. Chronic mucosal desquamation limited to the gingiva. Either distinct or associated with any of a number of vesiculoerosive processes.
Desquamative Gingivitis
Clinical presentation of _: erythema with loss of stippling, vesicle/bulla formation, spontaneous desquamation and erosion, significant pain
Desquamative Gingivitis
Desquamative Gingivitis
Drug-Related Gingival Hyperplasia is associated with numerous medications including:
Phenytoin, Calcium channel blockers (nifedipine), Cyclosporine
Clinical presentation of _: spreads from interdental papillae across tooth surfaces, anterior and facial areas most severely involved, edentulous areas are usually spared
Drug-Related Gingival Hyperplasia
Drug-Related Gingival Hyperplasia
Progressive gingival enlargement, no relationship to fibromatoses of bones or soft tissue, familial or idiopathic with numerous syndromic associations
Gingival Fibromatosis
Syndromes associated with Gingival Fibromatosis
Hypertrichosis, Epilepsy, Hypothyroidism
Not drug-related
Gingival Fibromatosis
Diagnosis of exclusion; secondary to immune dysfunction rather than plaque and calculus accumulation; similar pathogens to periodontitis
Aggressive Periodontitis
Two forms of Aggressive Periodontitis
Localized and Generalized
Which Aggressive Periodontitis?: circumpubertal onset; robust serum antibody response to infecting agents
Localized
Localized aggressive periodontitis: attachment loss localized to the _ and _, with involvement of no more that two teeth other than the _ and _
first molars and incisors
Which aggressive periodontitis?: usually diagnosed in patients under the age of 30, but may occur at any age; poor serum antibody response to infecting agents; pronounced episodic destruction of periodontal attachment and alveolar bone
