Prevalence of Oral Lesions in Complete Denture Wearers- an Original Research
IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) e-ISSN: 2279-0853, p-ISSN: 2279-0861.Volume 20, Issue 1 Ser.3 (January. 2021), PP 29-33 www.iosrjournals.org Prevalence of oral lesions in complete denture wearers- An original research Prenika Sharma1*, Reecha Gupta2 1- MDS, Oral medicine and radiology 2- Professor and HOD Department of Prosthodontics, Indira Gandhi Govt. Dental College, Jammu (J&K) Abstract: Background: Complete denture patients are often associated with the various denture-related oral mucosallesions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prevalence ofdenture-related oral mucosal lesions in complete denture patients. Materials and Methods: The study was consisted of 225 patientshaving various denture-induced oral mucosal lesions from theoutpatient department of the department out of the 395 completedenture patients examined. Data related to gender, age, length ofdenture use, hygiene care were obtained. All the data were tabulated and analyzed. Results: In 225 complete denture patients. Denture stomatitis (60.23%) was the most commonlesion present, followed by Epulis fissuratum and angularcheilitis. The denture-induced oral mucosal lesions werefound more common in age >40 years (59.78%) and in female(52.70%) complete denture wearer patients. Conclusion: The present studies showed that oral lesions associated with wearing denture are prevalent and create health problems that impact the quality of life of dental patients. Key Words: Complete denture, denture stomatitis, Epulis fissuratum, oralmucosal lesions. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date of Submission: 26-12-2020 Date of Acceptance: 07-01-2021 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I.

The process of clinical diagnosis and treatment planning is of great concern to the patient as it determines the nature of future follow up care. There is a strong need for a rational and functional classification which will enable better understanding of the basic disease process, as well as in formulating a differential diagnosis. Clinical diagnostic skills and good judgment forms the key to successful management of yellow lesions of the oral cavity.

Management of Epulis Fissuratum Using Cryosurgery - a Case Report
CASE REPORT Management of Epulis Fissuratum Using Cryosurgery - A Case Report Pradeep Sharma, Daksh Goel, Rajarshi Ghosh, Balram Garg Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, I.T.S Dental College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, India Email for correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT The aim of the present case report is to present a case showing the treatment of Epulis fissuratum in relation to an ill-fitting denture treated with nitrous oxide cryosurgery. Epulis fissuratum associated with an ill-fitting denture greatly hinders mastication and produces discomfort and pain to the patient. The nitrous oxide cryosurgery can be used effectively in its management, due to its excellent hemorrhage control and post-operative healing. A 64-year- old male reported with Epulis fissuratum in the maxillary anterior vestibular sulcus, which was associated with an ill-fitting denture. Nitrous oxide cryosurgery was used for the treatment of the lesion. During the procedure, nil hemorrhage was achieved, and the post-operative healing was satisfactory. Nitrous oxide cryosurgery, hence, can be used effectively as it has the boon of achieving excellent hemostasis, good healing with minimal post-operative edema and pain, and maintaining an aseptic environment. This technique can be effectively used in the treatment of Epulis fissuratum besides it can also be used in the treatment of other oral soft tissue pathologies achieving a plethora of benefits. Key words: Epulis fissuratum, hemorrhage control, nitrous oxide cryosurgery, soft tissue lesion INTRODUCTION dentures have potential to cause oral carcinoma.[2] A poorly fitted prosthesis can give rise to a Hence, ill-fitting dentures and its sequelae should plethora of problems, notably Epulis fissuratum, not be overlooked. -
Oral Cancer in Its Early Stage, When Treatment May Be Most Effective
Clinical Showcase This month’s Clinical Showcase highlights common oral conditions that should be included in the differential diagnosis for squamous cell carcinoma or salivary gland tumours. The author sounds a cautionary note about the dangers of misdiagnosing oral lesions and reminds oral health professionals that they can detect oral cancer in its early stage, when treatment may be most effective. Clinical Showcase is a new section that features case demonstrations of clinical problems encountered in dental practice.

The patient did not report any family or personal antecedents of relevance. The development of the tumor appeared to be related to recent rehabilitation with implant retained overdentures retained with locator attachments (Figure 2). During intraoral exploration, a pedunculated lesion was found of fibrous consistency and whitish color with an ulcerated surface, which the patient found painful during function. It was decided to perform excisional biopsy. After obtaining informed consent from the patient, local anesthesia was applied with a supraperiosteal and perilesional infiltration technique, excision of the lesion by cold knife cone technique was performed, followed by cauterization with an electric scalpel (Figure 3 and 4). The sample was placed in a 10% formal saline for histopathological analysis. The anatomopathological report described the entity microscopically as a lesion with densely fibrous paucellular connective stroma around a vascular axis. The polypoid structure showed a covering of non-keratinized mature squamous epithelium. No signs of malignancy were observed. The pathologist’s diagnosis was of traumatic (fibroepithelial polyp) fibroma/epulis fissuratum. -
