|
TUBERCULOSIS
|
.Bacterial infection . Secondary variant-reactivation of active disease ..Associated with diabetes, poverty, old age, crowded conditions, AIDS ..Miliary- spread through the vascular system |
|
TB Cause

|
Involvement of skin-lupus Vulgaris
|
|

|
Symptoms include hemoptysis, productive cough, night sweats, weight loss, fever spreads by vascular, lymphatics, or expectorated infected material. Oral lesions present as chronic painless ulcer on tongue, palate, lip |
|

|
Infection results from scratch of kitten or cat infected with Bartonella henselae. |
|

|
Caused by Treponema pallidum, spirochete
|
|
Syphilis (Lues)

Two modes of transmission: Sexual contact Mother to fetus |
|
Syphilis (Lues)
|
Three stages: primary Secondary Tertiary |
|
Primary Syphilis
|
. Occurs at site of inoculation ** Chancre seen 3 to 90 days after inoculation . Lesions found on external genitalia, anus, and oral cavity |
|
Secondary syphilis (Disseminated)
|
Clinical Presentation: Painless lymphadenopathy Diffuse, painless maculopapular rash involving palmar/plantar areas Condyloma lata-papillary lesions (resemble viral papillomas) Oral lesions-mucous patches-whitish areas of mucosa involving lip, tongue, buccal mucosa, palate |
|
Tertiary Syphilis
|
Most serious complication Vascular complications-aneurysm of ascending aorta, congestive heart failure Psychosis, Dementia, Death Ocular involvement-iritis, choroidoretinitis, Argyll Robertson pupil Argyll Robertson pupil-pupil does not respond to bright light but constrict on focus |
|
Tertiary Syphilis
|
Most characteristic-granulomatous inflammation of tissues known as gumma
|
|
Tertiary Syphilis
|
Gumma-indurated, nodular, ulcerated lesion resulting in tissue destruction Palatal surface is perforated to nasal cavity |
|
Congenital Syphilis
|
known as Hutchinson's Triad Hutchinson's Teeth incisors (looks like screw driver) Mulberry molars (Moon's molars or Fournier) Ocular interstitial keratitis Eighth nerve deafness |
|
Scarlet Fever (Scarlatina)
|
.Caused by Group A, Beta-hemolytic Streptococci Begin as a tonsillitis with pharyngitis .Organisms attack blood vessels and produce-skin rash .Rash develops within two days and spreads-within 24 hours ("sunburn with goose pimples") .Dorsal tongue Fungiform papillae become erythematous "white strawberry tongue" first two days "Red strawberry tongue" fourth to fifth day |
|
Tonsillar Concretions & Tonsillolith
|
Tonsillar concretion-mass of foul-smelling desquamated keratin and foreign material with bacterial colonization Tonsillolith- dystrophic calcification of tonsillarconcretion Treat: remove by gargling warm salt water or pulsating jets of water |
|
Actinomycosis
|
.NOT a FUNGAL INFECTION .caused by anaerobic, gram-positive branching organism, Actinomyces israeli . Clinical presentation indurated (wooden) area of fibrosis Fistulous tract can result "Sulfur granules" -yellow felcks of bacterial- colonies found in pus or tracts .Commonly seen at angle of mandible . Histopathology Colonies of club-shaped organisms surrounded by a rim of neutrophils Organisms seen by Gram stain Treatment: antibiotics with drainage |
|
FUNGAL INFECTIONS
|
CANDIDIASIS HISTOPLASMOSIS BLASTOMYCOSIS PARACOCCIDIOIDOMYCOSIS COCCIDIODOMYCOSIS ZYGOMYCOSIS ASPERGILLOSIS |
|
Candidiasis
|
.most common oral fungal infection .Dimorphic organism-exist in yeast(in human) and hyphae (environment) form .normal oral flora . common predisposing factors chronic debilitating disease nutritional and endocrine disturbances broad-spectrum Antibiotic Therapy Systemic Corticosteroid Therapy Partial or Complete Dentures Immune Defiency
|
|
Pseudomembranous Candidiasis (THRUSH)
|
(like white cottage cheese) .most recognized form .white plaques Cottage cheese or curdled milk .easily be removed with tongue blade or gauze to reveal erythematous mucosa |
|
Erythematous Candidiasis
|
.Presents as burning sensation (Does not exhibit white component seen in pseudomembranous) .Can occur after course of broad-spectrum antibiotics (acute atrophic candidiasis) .If present on tongue, filiform papillae is lost resulting in a red or "bald" appearance |
|
Median Rhomboid Glossitis
|
(type of candidiasis) .form of erythematous candidiasis Central Papillary Atrophy .Well-demarcated erythematous area involving the midline of the posterior dorsal tongue (loss of papilla of tissue in the middle of tongue) |
|
Denture Stomatitis |
(Chronic Atrophic Candidiasis) . Found in patients wearing removable partials or complete dentures. . Continuous wear of appliance without proper oral hygiene .Appears erythematous with petechial hemorrhage in denture bearing areas. |
|
Angular Cheilitis (Perleche) |
Found in older adults . Occurs at the angles of the mouth (commissures) Erythematous, fissured, or scaling .Associated with Staphylococcus aureus . Results from loss of vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) |
|
Chronic Hyperplastic Candidiasis
|
.White patch that cannot be removed by scraping
|
|
Candidiasis
|
Diagnosis: cytologic smear Treatment: (antifungal Therapy) Clotrimazole (Mycelex) troches (suck on it 5/day) Angular Cheilitis Clotrimazole cream Denture Stomatitis soak denture in mixture of water and sodium hypochlorite (bleach) (no bleach for partial denture-cuz it turns the metal part black. Place Nystatin in denture base |
