Corresponding Author: Sadeq Ali Al-Maweri Received: 28/05/2016 Revised: 15/06/2016 Accepted: 20/06/2016 ABSTRACT Plasma cell stomatitis (PCS), an uncommon condition, is characterized by massive and dense infiltration of plasma cells into the connective tissue. The etiology of PCS is unclear, but this condition is believed to be an immunological reaction to certain allergens present in chewing gum, flavoring mint, dentifrices and cinnamon flavoring products. Recently, plasma cell stomatitis has also been reported among habitual khat chewers. Khat, a psychostimulant herb, is cultivated and habitually chewed by millions of people in East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula as well as by immigrants in the west. This article aims to briefly review the current literature of the association of PCS with Khat use and to highlight the treatment approaches for such cases. -

Dentinal Hypersensitivity: a Review
Dentinal Hypersensitivity: A Review Abstract Dentinal hypersensitivity is generally reported by the patient after experiencing a sharp pain caused by one of several different stimuli. The pain response varies substantially from one person to another. The condition generally involves the facial surfaces of teeth near the cervical aspect and is very common in premolars and canines. The most widely accepted theory of how the pain occurs is Brannstrom’s hydrodynamic theory, fluid movement within the dentinal tubules. The dental professional, using a variety of diagnostic techniques, will discern the condition from other conditions that may cause sensitive teeth. Treatment of the condition can be invasive or non-invasive in nature. The most inexpensive and efficacious first line of treatment for most patients is a dentifrice containing a desensitizing active ingredient such as potassium nitrate and/or stannous fluoride. This review will address the prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment of dentinal hypersensitivity. In addition the home care recommendations will focus on desensitizing dentifrices.

Generalized Aggressive Periodontitis Associated with Plasma Cell Gingivitis Lesion: a Case Report and Non-Surgical Treatment

Introduction: Plasma cell gingivitis (PCG) is an unusual inflammatory condition characterized by dense, band-like polyclonal plasmacytic infiltration of the lamina propria. Clinically, appears as gingival enlargement with erythema and swelling of the attached and free gingiva, and is not associated with any loss of attachment. The aim of this report is to present a rare case of severe generalized aggressive periodontitis (GAP) associated with a PCG lesion that was successfully treated and maintained non-surgically. Case presentation: A 32-year-old white male with a non-contributory medical history presented with gingival enlargement with diffuse erythema and edematous swelling, predominantly around teeth #5-8. Clinical and radiographic examination revealed generalized severe periodontal destruction. A complete blood count and biochemical tests were within normal limits. Histological and immunohistochemical examination were consistent with PCG. A diagnosis of severe GAP associated with a PCG lesion was assigned. Treatment included elimination of possible allergens and non- surgical periodontal treatment in combination with azithromycin. Clinical examination at re-evaluation revealed complete resolution of gingival enlargement, erythema and edema and localized residual probing depths 5 mm. One year post-treatment the clinical condition was stable. -

Examination of the gingiva is part of every patient visit. In this context, a thorough clinical and radiographic assessment of the patient’s gingival tissues provides the dental practitioner with invaluable diagnostic information that is critical to determining the health status of the gingiva. The dental hygienist is often the first member of the dental team to be able to detect the early signs of periodontal disease. In 2017, the American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) and the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) developed a new worldwide classification scheme for periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions. Included in the new classification scheme is the category called “periodontal health, gingival diseases/conditions.” Therefore, this chapter will first review the parameters that define periodontal health. Appreciating what constitutes as periodontal health serves as the basis for the dental provider to have a stronger understanding of the different categories of gingival diseases and conditions that are commonly encountered in clinical practice. Learning Objectives • Define periodontal health and be able to describe the clinical features that are consistent with signs of periodontal health. • List the two major subdivisions of gingival disease as established by the American Academy of Periodontology and the European Federation of Periodontology. -
Plasma Cell Gingivitis Among Herbal Toothpaste Users: a Report of Three Cases
Plasma Cell Gingivitis Among Herbal Toothpaste Users: A Report of Three Cases Abstract Aim: The aim of this article is to present a brief review of plasma cell gingivitis (PCG) along with reports of three cases with varying clinical presentations of the condition associated with the use of herbal toothpaste. Background: PCG is a rare benign condition of the gingiva characterized by sharply demarcated erythematous and edematous gingivitis often extending to the mucogingival junction. This is considered a hypersensitive reaction. The histological appearance consists of a dense infiltration of normal plasma cells separated by collagenous stroma, usually confined to the free and attached gingiva. The lesion can be eliminated by identifying and avoiding the source of the allergen. Report: Three patients ages 26, 27, and 36, respectively, presented with acutely inflamed gingival and a history of recently switching to herbal toothpaste. The gingiva bled readily on probing. Blood tests and gingival biopsy were not contributory. Patients were advised to refrain from the use of herbal toothpaste, and, along with periodontal treatment, the condition underwent remission within a week to two weeks in all three cases. Summary: As more and more herbal products are gaining popularity, clinicians should be aware of some of the untoward effects of these products. Since PCG mimics lesions associated with leukemia and myeloma an early diagnosis of the condition is vital.

Gingival overgrowth is increase in the size of gingiva. Gingival overgrowth may be associated with hormonal, nutritional imbalance or other local factors and systemic diseases. Plasma cell gingivitis is a condition that is clinically characterized by diffuse reddening and edematous swelling of gingiva. A non-smoker systemically healthy 35-year-old female patient reported with the chief complaint of swollen gums since 3 years. Clinically patient presented with generalized gingival overgrowth and was diagnosed as a stage IV grade ‘C’ periodontitis. -
Oral Manifestations of a Possible New Periodic Fever Syndrome Soraya Beiraghi, DDS, MSD, MS, MSD1 • Sandra L

Regelmann, MD3 • Scott Baker, MD, MS4 Abstract: Periodic fever syndrome is composed of a group of disorders that present with recurrent predictable episodes of fever, which may be accompanied by: (1) lymphadenopathy; (2) malaise; (3) gastrointestinal disturbances; (4) arthralgia; (5) stomatitis; and (6) skin lesions. These signs and symptoms occur in distinct intervals every 4 to 6 weeks and resolve without any residual effect, and the patient remains healthy between attacks. The evaluation must exclude: (1) infections; (2) neoplasms; and (3) autoimmune conditions. The purpose of this paper is to report the case of a 4½- year-old white female who presented with a history of periodic fevers accompanied by: (1) joint pain; (2) skin lesions; (3) rhinitis; (4) vomiting; (5) diarrhea; and (6) an unusual asymptomatic, marked, fi ery red glossitis with features evolving to resemble geographic tongue and then resolving completely between episodes. This may represent the fi rst known reported case in the literature of a periodic fever syndrome presenting with such unusual recurring oral fi ndings.

An erythematous and swollen gingiva with velvety surface was a typical feature. Areas Qat of epithelial sloughing and/or erosions were also noticed. In seven patients, the lesion also affected the tongue, palate, lip and/or buccal mucosa. Hoarseness was observed in some of the patients suggesting laryngeal involvement. The symptoms correlated with patterns of qat chewing. Histological examination revealed dense infiltration of lamina propria by benign plasma cells. -
