Answers for Benign Migratory Glossitis Filiform papilla loss; not static; red
areas encircled by a white or yellow border
Hairy Tongue: ANSWER Radiation, corticosteroids, and antibiotics may cause
an elongated filiform papilla.
A variation of the typical tongue, fissured tongue has grooves or fissures on the
dorsal surface; if food gathers here, it may become irritating.
Answer to Lingual Variscosities Ventral surface of tongue, dilated superficial
veins; reddish-purple expanded vessels
Answer for Median Rhomboid Glossitis lacking filiform papilla; perhaps linked
to Candida albicans; red patch on tongue midline
Macroglossia: A REPLY Increased tongue size; linked to acromegaly
Trisomy 21, fissured tongue, macroglossia, mouth breathing, hypodontia,
taurodontism, gingival and perio dz
Solution for Nicotine Stomatitis heavy smokers' hard palates with a white
lesion; Heat-induced redness is the initial reaction; keratinization occurs over
time. The small salivary glands' duct apertures are represented by the elevated
red dots. White, wrinkly, and coarse-looking
List the five forms of Candida albicans: pseudomembranous, erythematous,
chronic hypertrophic candidiasis, angular cheilitis, and median rhomboid
glossitis.
Pseudomembranous: ANSWER white plaques that "thrush" off.
Erythematous: "Acute Atrophic Candidiasis"; ANSWER red mucosa.
, Answer "denture stomatitis" if you have chronic atrophic candidiasis.
Answers to Angular Cheilitis fissuring at the labial commissures; a lack of
riboflavin (Vit B2) could possibly be the cause.
An erythematous region in the tongue's midline is known as median rhomboid
glossitis.
Leukoedema: A gray to white coating; the opalescence is less apparent when the
mucosa is stretched.
Linea Alba: ANSWER "white line" is hyperkeratotic and frequently associated
with a clenching habit or bruxism.
Leukoplakia is a white patch, plaque, or oral mucosa that is associated to
tobacco smoking and cannot be removed.
The answer to hairy leukoplakia Epstein-Barr virus appears to be the etiologic
agent in relation to HIV. * The initial oral symptom of HIV is a white patch on
the tongue's lateral border.
ANSWER racial or natural pigmentation, which varies among people with
darker skin tones
Melanotic Macule: "Oral Freckle" is the response; it's a flat brown lesion. Not
reliant on sun exposure
The most prevalent pigmented lesion is an amalgam tattoo.
ANSWER: Fordyce's Granules: little yellow nodules on the buccal mucosa and
vermillion, intraoral sebaceous glands
The answer to Addison's disease Melanotic macule, generalized skin
pigmentation, bronzing-tinted skin, and primary adrenal cortical insufficiency
The most prevalent tumor of the oral cavity is irritation fibroma, which is
caused by persistent cheek biting.
Verruca vulgaris is typically a white, papillary exophytic lesion that is
pedunculated, cauliflower-like, and caused by HPV.
ANSWER Hemangioma The tongue is the most frequent intraoral site for
vascular lesions that are developing rather than tumorous.
