Study Notes

Hyperplasia

Characterized by increased cell proliferation in response to stimuli, such as chronic or low-grade infections.
Cells remain normal in structure despite the increase in quantity.
Hyperplasia can revert to normal upon removal of the stimulus affecting it.

Neoplasia

Defined as an irreversible growth of tissue, commonly referred to as tumors.
Involves uncontrolled and abnormal cell growth.
Neoplasia can be classified into two types: benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous).

Connective Tissue Hyperplasia of Oral Mucosa

Localized hyperplastic lesions in the oral mucosa are frequently observed.
Chronic inflammation plays a pivotal role in connective tissue hyperplasia.
Inflammation and tissue repair occur concurrently during this process, often leading to the formation of granulation tissue.
The presence of granulation tissue indicates an active disease process linked to hyperplasia in the oral mucosa.
