Lobules of sebaceous glands aggregated around or adjacent to excretory ducts

Well formed heterotrophic glands and appear functional

112
Q

TREATMENT: FORDYCE SPOTS

A

Asymptomatic- leave it wag na galawin (not an emergency)

No treatment- removal if the glands would post or show abnormal qualities

112
Q

LOCATION: ECTOPIC LYMPHOID TISSUE

A

Anywhere in the oral cavity

112
Q

Aggregate of lymphoid tissue commonly seen in the soft palate, floor of the mouth, and tonsillar pillars.

A

ECTOPIC LYMPHOID TISSUE

112
Q

DIAGNOSIS: ECTOPIC LYMPHOID TISSUE

A

Entrapped epithelium within lymphoid tissue

Diagnosed on the basis of clinical features alone

112
Q

TREATMENT: GINGIVAL CYSTS

A

No treatment indicated for infants since it rupture spontaneously early in life

For adults, surgical excision with inclusion of the overlying epithelium is recommended

112
Q

TREATMENT: ECTOPIC LYMPHOID TISSUE

A

Normal tissue, no biopsy is necessary

112
Q

CLINICAL FEATURES: ECTOPIC LYMPHOID TISSUE

A

Yellow/yellow-white small dome shape elevations
Posterolateral aspect of tongue

112
Q

Occur in adults as well as infants

Odontogenic origin in adults

Frequency is highest in the neonatal phase- then disappear within 3 months due to rupture or exfoliate

A

GINGIVAL CYSTS

112
Q

Focus of or accumulation of pus in the gingiva

A

PARULIS

112
Q

COMMON TERM OF PARULIS

A

“Gum boil”

112
Q

Cysts noted along the palatal midline that had no relationship to the tooth-forming apparatus

A

Epstein pearls

112
Q

In neonatal: GINGIVAL CYSTS

A

Epstein pearls

Bohn’s nodules

112
Q

Cysts noted along the alveolar ridges that were believed to be related to salivary gland remnants

A

Bohn’s nodules

112
Q

TREATMENT: PARULIS

A

Treatment of the underlying condition
Know the cause of accumulation of pus

112
Q

CLINICAL APPEARANCE: PARULIS

A

Yellow-white gingival tumescence with an associated erythema

112
Q

ETIOLOGY: PARULIS

A

Derived from an acute infection either at the base of the occluded periodontal pocket or at the apex of a nonvital tooth

The path is of the least resistance

Pain is typical until the pus escapes to the surface

112
Q

CLINICAL APPEARANCE: LIPOMA

A

Asymptomatic

Yellowish submucosal mass

Intact overlying epithelium

Superficial blood vessels evident over the tumor

112
Q

LOCATION: PARULIS

A

Anywhere in the oral cavity soft tissues
Not expected to recur
Buccal mucosa, tongue, and floor of the mouth

112
Q

LOCATION: LIPOMA

A

112
Q

A well circumcised, lobulated mass of mature fat cells
