==Overview==

Stomatitis is an [[inflammation]] of the [[mucous lining]] of any of the structures in the [[mouth]], which may involve the [[cheeks]], [[gums]], [[tongue]], [[lips]], [[throat]], and roof or floor of the mouth. Most physicians do not regularly examine the mouth of patients and so stomatitis or triggering conditions can remain undiagnosed unless they become symptomatic.<ref>{{Cite journal

}}</ref> The inflammation of the structures in the mouth can be caused by a condition limited just to the mouth, such as poor [[oral hygiene]], poorly fitted [[dentures]], or from mouth burns from hot food or drinks, or by conditions that affect the entire body, such as [[medications]], [[allergic reactions]], or [[infections]]. A form of stomatitis known as stomatitis nicotina can be caused by smoking cigars, cigarettes, and pipes, and is characterized by small red bumps on the roof of the mouth.<ref>{{cite web|year=1969|title=Smoking and Noncancerous Oral Disease|format=PDF|work=The Reports of the Surgeon General|url=http://profiles.nlm.nih.gov/NN/B/B/L/N/_/nnbbln.pdf|accessdate=2006-06-23}}</ref>


When it also involves an inflammation of the [[gingiva]], it is called gingivostomatitis.
==[[Stomatitis overview|Overview]]==
Irritation and [[fissure|fissuring]] in the corners of the lips is termed angular stomatits or [[angular cheilitis]]. In children a frequent cause is repeated lip-licking and in adults it may be a sign of underlying [[iron deficiency anemia]], or [[vitamin B]] deficiencis (e.g. B2-[[riboflavin]], B9-[[folate]] or [[B12]]-cobalamins), which in turn may be evidence of poor diets or malnutrition (e.g. [[celiac disease]]).


==Historical Perspective==
==[[Stomatitis historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==
*Between 460-370 B.C., in relation to disorders of the mouth the term aphthae was first used by [[Hippocrates]].<ref name=Stomatitis-update> Ship, Jonathan A. "Recurrent aphthous stomatitis: an update." Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology, and Endodontology 81.2 (1996): 141-147.</ref>
*In 1898, the first clinical description of the aphthous stomatitis was reported by Von Mikulicz and Kumme as a Mikuliez aphthea
*In 1911, stomatitis aphthae recurrens cicatricicans was first described by Sutton.
*In 1961, stomatitis aphthae recurrens herpetiformis was first described by Cooke.<ref name="pmid6929240">{{cite journal| author=Kramer IR, Pindborg JJ, Bezroukov V, Infirri JS| title=Guide to epidemiology and diagnosis of oral mucosal diseases and conditions.

*Aphthous stomatitis:
==[[Stomatitis screening|Screening]]==
**It is the most common cause of oral ulcers. A definitive pathogenesis does not exist for aphthous stomatitis but the proposed mechanism involves immune system abnormalities and the presence of autoimmune antibodies. It is thought to be caused by some types of cytokine and T cell accumulation manifesting as a defective cell mediated arm of the immunity.Recurrence is very common in aphthous ulcers.<ref name="pmid8665304">{{cite journal| author=Ship JA| title=Recurrent aphthous stomatitis.

*Herpetic stomatitis:
**This type is causes by [[HSV1]] virus. It is caused by the destructive effect cause by the virus on the tissues in the form of break down of the infected cells. The infection may start as vesicles that are typically pin-head like and ultimately rupture, resulting ulceration. As a characteristic to the virus these ulcers are painful, irregular in appearance and often have a yellow-grey covering layer.
**After the lesions resolve, the virus travels though the nerves to the nerve cells and goes into a latent stage. It can then reactivate when the person becomes immunocompromised and cause symptoms.<ref name="pmid16451405">{{cite journal| author=Kolokotronis A, Doumas S| title=Herpes simplex virus infection, with particular reference to the progression and complications of primary herpetic gingivostomatitis. | journal=Clin Microbiol Infect | year= 2006 | volume= 12 | issue= 3 | pages= 202-11 | pmid=16451405 | doi=10.1111/j.1469-0691.2005.01336.x | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=16451405  }} </ref>
**Encephalitis associated with herpetic stomatitis is due to the interaction of [[HSV1]] with Toll-like receptor 2 or  [[TLR2]]
*Chemotherapy associated stomatitis:
**The Chemotherapy causes RNA and DNA damage by the reactive oxygen species leading to an excessive production of inflammatory cytokines. These cytosines cause inflammation thus causing breaks in the epithelium.
*Denture stomatitis:
**Denture stomatitis effects upto 67% of denture wearers. It moct commonly affects the palatal mucosa.<ref name="pmid3298586">{{cite journal| author=Arendorf TM, Walker DM| title=Denture stomatitis: a review. | journal=J Oral Rehabil | year= 1987 | volume= 14 | issue= 3 | pages= 217-27 | pmid=3298586 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=3298586  }} </ref>The material used in fillings and dentures are porus because of the chemicals used and to give it a better grip.

**Gangrenous stomatitis is also known as Noma or 'cancrum Doris'. Noma or gangrenous stomatitisIt is focal and destructive infection caused by [[Borrelia]] vincentii, [[Fusobacterium]] and [[Bacteroides]]. It is an acute infection of the tissues in the orofacial region. Immunocompromised individuals are predisposed to develop this condition. Noma or gangrenous stomatitis is more common in children. The infection can begin as a spot or vesicle on the gingival surface of the mandibular molars and premolars. This spot or vesicle is red initially and painful and develops into an ulcer. The lesion has cone shaped expansion with bone, teeth and tissue underneath being exposed after the soft tissue sloughs off.<ref name="Gangrenous stomatitis">{{cite book |last1=Mandell |firs1t=Gerald |last2=Gouglas |first2=Gordon |last3=Bennett |first3=John |date= |title=Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases |location= Harvard Medical School |publisher=WILEY MEDICAL |page=383 |isbn=0-471-87643-7}}​</ref>

**[[Bovine papular stomatitis]] is a [[zoonotic]] disease. It is caused by [[bovine papular stomatitis virus]], starting as a single lesion and becoming a nodular mass ultimately.

==Natural History, Complications and Prognosis==
===Natural History===
*If left untreated herpetic stomatitis resolves after the vesicles erupt and the ulcers heal. The [[HSV]] travels length nerves and moves to the ganglions where it stays in latent form. When the host becomes immunocompromised after taking medications or due to some other illness, the virus assesses the opportunity and through the same nerves becomes active once again manifesting symptoms such as oral [[vesicles]].<ref name="pmid16451405">{{cite journal| author=Kolokotronis A, Doumas S| title=Herpes simplex virus infection, with particular reference to the progression and complications of primary herpetic gingivostomatitis. | journal=Clin Microbiol Infect | year= 2006 | volume= 12 | issue= 3 | pages= 202-11 | pmid=16451405 | doi=10.1111/j.1469-0691.2005.01336.x | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=16451405  }} </ref>

==Laboratory Findings==
History and physical examination are the mainstay of diagnosing stomatitis. If required laboratory findings can play an important role in diagnosing and differentiating the particular type of stomatitis.
===Herpetic Stomatitis===
*Viral culture
*Tzank smear for active lesions
**It can not differentiate between the various types of viruses that can cause stomatitis i.e [[HSV1]], [[HSV2]] or [[VZV]]
*Serology
*Studies using immunofluorescent techniques
