• Airway stability, fluid replacement,
electrolyte correction, wound
cared as burns & pain control
• Underlying diseases & infections
treated
• Offending drugs must be stopped
• Local anesthetics & mouthwashes
for oral lesions
• Steroids use is controversial.
Cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine &
I.V. immunoglobulin are used.
36. 13.Black hairy
tongue

37. 15.ORAL CANCER
Squamous Cell Carcinoma constitutes 95% of oral cancers
Common in Old Men (50-60 years)
COMMON SITES :

Lip (lower lip)
Tongue (anterior ⅔)
Mouth floor
Tonsil and Fauces
AETIOLOGY:
Tobacco and alcohol are the most common associations:
Smokers can have 15-fold greater risk ( than nonsmokers ) of malignancy.
Chewing tobacco and betel nuts are important causes in India and parts of Asia
Leukoplakia and Erythroplakia
Human papilloma virus (HPV) (type16)
Genetic factors may also play a role
(deletions in chromosomes 18q, 8p, and 3p are implicated).
Exposure to ultra-violet light (cancer of the lip).
41. INTRODUCTION
• Very often the oral dermatological conditions
involving oral cavity are misdiagnosed and proper
attention and care is not given.
• This study is to sensitize the clinicians to the
prevailing situation of oral dermatological conditions.
42. MATERIALS & METHODS
• A total of 150 cases were
taken up for the study
irrespective of
age,sex,duration of lesions
attending dermatology/ENT
dept. during 1 year period.
• The following areas were
taken into consideration:
1. Site of lesion
2. Morphology
3. Extent of lesion
4. Discharge if any
5. Margins of lesion
6. Floor and base of lesion
7. Regional lymphnodes if any
• Investigations done are:
1. Routine blood,urine and
stool tests
2. Scrapings,KOH mount
3. Tzank test
4. Gram stains
5. Biopsy for certain
cases.
6. Special tests were done
for systemic diseases
if indicated

46. DISCUSSION
• Pt.s having oral diseases
presents with different signs
and symptoms like
Oral pain,soreness,burning,
xerostomia,bleeding, swelling,
change ofcolour,erosion,crusting,
Ulcers,fissuring
• The study has recorded 25 pt.s
of pemphigus vulgaris having
both cutaneous manifestations,
revealing that this is the
common lesion.
• The study shows that buccal
mucosa was the most commonly
affected site(68%),followed by
palates(56%),lips(44%),tongue(
40%),labial mucosa(16%).
pemphigus vulgaris
47. • Collagen diseases form the next common group. Among this
systemic lupus erythematosus is major one, and most of the
lesions are confined to palate.
• The study recorded 13 cases of discoid lupus
erythematosus,with lips being the commonest site.
• Among the specific cutaneous disorders,16 cases of recurrent
aphthous stomatits have been recorded,with labial mucosa
being common site.,and most common one was minor type.
• 12 pts of lichen planus were recorded with lip&cheek being
common sites, and common in age group of 20-40.
• Infective disorders constitute 10% of study with candidiasis
being common one.common site of involvement is dorsal tongue.
• The study also recorded 6 cases of oral submucosal fibrosis
with cheeks(buccal mucosa) being common site.
• 4 pts of oral leukoplakia have been recorded with buccal
mucosa being common site of involvement.
• 6 pts of angular stomatitis have been recorded with lesions on
lips and buccal mucosa..

50. CONCLUSIONS
• Oral mucous membrane alone may be involved in some
disesases,but it is often missed by clinician.
• This can be taken care of by primary health care
providers without going through much sophisticated
investigations and thus early intervention for
patients.
