    About this ebook

    "Oral Medicine and Pathology from A-Z" is an important part of the image of the dentist as a medical practitioner. I have attempted to describe the individual disorders briefly following the same concept: definition, aetiology, symptoms, clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and differential diagnoses. In some cases, there is a slight overlap, so a disorder is referred to twice under different names.

    I have included extensive images that will facilitate the clinician‘s ability to perform rapid diagnostics, but also fulfill some colleagues‘ desire for illustration of the various disorders of the patient.

    It is my hope that the book‘s form using text and associated images in the same spread will facilitate the use of the book by clinicians and that it will become an indispensable part of the clinic‘s library.

      Oral Medicine & Pathology from A-Z - Henning Lehmann Bastian

      Foreword

      The book is intended as a clinical guide for the practising dentist, but dentistry students, practitioners and ear, nose and throat doctors will also be able to make use of the book as a reference. The book has included in the form of a lexicon only the most common conditions in Oral Medicine and Pathology. If you are interested and would like to go deeper into each topic, you are recommended to visit the major electronic search engines such as PubMed and Grateful Med.

      At the back of the book there is a so-called diagnostic tree by which on the basis of symptoms and clinical signs it is possible to achieve an approximate diagnosis in the particular case in oral medicine. In addition, there is also a text on electronic search for the benefit of students.

      Constructive criticism and suggestions for improvement are welcome. Also interesting clinical profiles. Contact: hlb@os.dk.

      Diagnostic tree from A to D

      1. Abrasio dentium

      Definition: Wear of enamel/dentin caused otherwise than by tooth contact.

      Aetiology: Abrasion has a variable pattern, depending on the cause of the wear. Typically toothbrush damage at the transition between enamel and dentine Fig. 1.1. Abrasion is also seen on the incisal edge e.g. after use of the teeth to hold pins, wire, nails etc.. There is also the well-known abrasion from the mouthpiece in habitual pipe smokers Fig. 1.2. Sustained use of toothpicks may result in atypical approximal wear.

      Symptoms: Since abrasion develops over a long time there is seldom dentine hypersensitivity, due to the formation of secondary dentine.

      Clinical features: It is easy to recognise the damage by ordinary visual examination. Fig. 1.3.

      Diagnosis: The diagnosis is performed clinically

      Treatment: The treatment will be the correction of the unfortunate dental care habits and conservative dentistry, possibly reconstruction.

      Differential diagnosis: Erosions.

      Fig. 1.1.

      Fig. 1.2.

      Fig. 1.3.

      2. Abscessus parodontalis

      Definition: An abscess has occurred in an existing periodontal pocket.

      Aetiology: The abscess occurs when the degradation of the bone around a tooth has resulted in the formation of a deep periodontal pocket, and the secretion of pus from it is blocked. Through the closure of the pocket pus accumulates and an abscess forms. The condition can also result from changes in the bacterial flora in the pocket, an impaired immune system or a combination of these factors. Most frequently seen in adults. In children, it can be seen in cases of cutting of teeth.

      Symptoms: Strong throbbing pain, aggravated by chewing and pressure on the tooth. Causes bad breath. In acute cases there is swelling and tenderness of proximal lymph nodes and fever. The responsible tooth can be easily identified and in addition to the pain the tooth is often loose to a greater or lesser degree.

      Clinical features: Gums are erythematous and oedematous with a raised red surface. By probing into the pocket the pus can be expressed. Fig.2.1.

      Diagnosis: The diagnosis can be performed clinical, radiological and possibly by swab.

      Treatment: The
