. Principles of Oral Diagnosis: Gary C. Coleman John F. Nelson st Ed (1993),page I-White lesions of superficial materials Pseudomembranous candidiasis Hyperplastic candidiasis (white lesion of epithelial thickning ) Angular chelitis Chemical mucosal burns Oral ulcers II- White lesions of submucosal change Fordyces granules Scar Submucous fibrosis 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
3
I-WHITE LESIONS OF SUPERFICIAL MATERIAL
24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
4
Opaque and rough or grainy.
White material, soft or friable and rubbing an ulcer or erythematous Frequent burning & discomfort sensation.(food remnants, a dense accumulation of materia alba, or plaque painless, mucosa appears normal. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
5
The differential diagnosis is simple after removal of the white material
( white surface coagulum ).therefore the differential diagnosis shifts to the ulcerative lesions category . 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
6
1-Pseudomembranous Candidiasis
Acute superficial mucosal infection. Infants & immune compromised. systemic corticosteroid therapy, chemotherapy, AIDS, or acute debilitating illness. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
7
Clinical features Diffuse, patchy, or globular white thickened plaques. Tongue, soft palate & buccal mucosa. Can be wiped off erythematous, atrophic, or, ulcerated mucosa. Mild burning pain severe when coagulum scraped. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
8
Pseudomembranous candidiasis on the palate
24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
9
Thrush White patch and flecks that rubbed off(patient complained of a burning mouth ) More extensive pseudomembranous lesions associated with erythematous base 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
10
Differential diagnosis
C.F + resistance diagnosis. Chemical burns (white fibrinoid surface thinner and delicate , more focal + pt. HX. ) 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
11
Management Culture or exfoliative cytology.
Spread to orophayngeal and esophageal surfaces. Medical referral. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
12
2-Hyperplastic Candidiasis. (White lesions of epithelial thickening )
Superficial infection of the oral mucosa by the fungus Candida albicans and less common species of the same genus. * Predisposing factors, ( poor oral hygiene,xerostomia,recent antibiotic treatment,dental appliance,) * Compromised Immune system. ( early infancy,AIDS,corticosteroid,anemia,diabetes mellitus,) 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
13
Hyperplastic candidiasis
Epithelial thickening that do not rub off. Pseudomembranous candidiasis. Atrophic candidiasis. Chronic infection,red patch thined→red lesion Angular chilitis: labial commissures (non healing fissures). 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
14
Chronic Hyperplastic Candidosis ( candidal leukoplakia )
It appears as a thick,white leathery plaque of irregular thickness with rough surface (identical leukoplakia clinically ) The white patch is seen as triangular patch on buccal mucosa , lip commissure Bilateral distribution In some cases erythematous areas are located within the white patch ( producing feature of speckled leukoplakia ) Candidal leukoplakia is often associated with angular cheilitis 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
15
Candidal leukoplakia a chronic form of candidiasis in which firm red white plaques form
In the cheek In the palate opposite a tongue lesions ( kissing lesions 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
16
Chronic hyperplastic candidasis.
Chronic hyperplastic candidasis presenting as multiple wartilke growths on the patient’s lower lip 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
17
24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
18
3-angular cheilitis labial commissures
characterized by nonhealing fissures two, three, or even all four forms. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam 18
19

20
24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
21
Clinical features Hyperplastic candidiasis
multiple or diffuse variably thick, patchy, do not rub off vague borders tongue. Other forms Hyperplastic most resistance. vaginal itching and discharge indicative of vaginal candidiasis. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam 21
22
Differential diagnosis
The combination and underlying condition (resistance). Lichen planus-striae & skin lesions. Hairy leukoplakia treatment no response ?? other lesion. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam 22
23
Management decisions A working diagnosis Topical antifungal -1 week.
exolifative cytology culture. Topical antifungal -1 week. Resistant systemic antimycotic. Clean mucosa brush or scrap Dentures 1/2 teaspoon of bleach in 1 cup or in topical antimycotic Medical referral. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam 23
24
4-chemical Mucosal Burns
corrosive chemicals( aspirin tablet. Iatrogenic chemical injury ) Wiped away painful central ulceration. Thin, membranous appearance Adherent patches on periphery. The lesions may be categorized as ulcerative rather than white if the superficial white material has been abraded away before examination Pt. HX. Differential diagnosis Diffuse & multifocal candidiasis. Treatment :- remove the cause 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam

Differential diagnosis
Epithelial thickening. Candidiasis. Chemical burn. Clinically : 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam

II-WHITE LESIONS OF SUBMUCOSAL CHANGE
It appear pale because the normally vascular mucosal connective tissue has been replaced by less vascular tissue . Smooth, translucent, don't rub off Non painful Fordyce granules, scarring,submucous fibrosis 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
43
1-Fordyce Granules Ectopic Sebaceous glands located within the oral mucosa ( variation of normal ). Increase in prominence with age. Buccal, labial mucosa Treatment , no treatment or follow up. Clinically ,,,,,,,,,,,, 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
44
Fordyce’s granules on the buccal mucosa
24/04/2017 Prof.hamam Fordyce’s granules on the buccal mucosa
45
Clinical features. Small (1 to 2 mm) ovoid yellowish-white
Bilaterally symmetric distribution . Differential diagnosis Characteristic appearance Management: No treatment or observation. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
46
2-Scar Healing and repair of soft tissue injuries with dense collagenous connective tissue or scar often produces a pale appearance as compared with adjacent, normal tissues. ( ?The hard palate and gingiva). 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
47
Clinical features. Focal, homogeneous, pale, smooth and sharply delineated borders. No pain, or other symptoms. Pit or fissure depressions ( if the injury or surgical procedure resulted in poor tissue apposition ) Stellate pattern of pale lines radiating from the depression between the tonsillar pillars that represent healing follwing a tonsillectomy . 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
48
Differential diagnosis.
Submucous fibrosis Management None or observation. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
49
3-Submucous Fibrosis Generalized fibrosis of the connective tissue of the oral mucosa in response to habitual chewing of betal nut & spices India & southeast Asia . 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
50
Clinical features. Generalized yellow- to white discoloration.
Smooth surface Intensity of the color vary. Loss of elasticity & firmness. Soft palate and buccal mucosa. Severe trismus HX. oral habits. 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
51
Generalized oral mucosal fibrosis and history of the oral habit confirm the diagnosis
24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
52
Differential diagnosis.
systemic sclerosis, Radiotherapy. Management Discontinue habit, Fibrosis is irreversible. Stretching exercises +corticosteroid clinical reexamination.( is mandatory because approximately one third eventually develop squamous cell carcinoma ) 24/04/2017 Prof.hamam
