Study Notes
Overview of Oral Infections: Viral, Bacterial, and Fungal
-
Oral infections can be viral, bacterial, or fungal in nature.
-
Viral infections include herpes simplex virus (HSV), human papilloma virus (HPV), and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).
-
Primary HSV infection occurs for the first time and can occur anywhere in the mouth, while recurrent HSV infection occurs when the virus reactivates and manifests differently.
-
Varicella-zoster virus causes chickenpox (primary infection) and shingles (recurrent infection).
-
Coxsackievirus can cause hand, foot, and mouth disease, as well as herpangina.
-
Measles virus can cause Koplik spots in the mouth.
-
HPV can cause papillomas or warts on the tongue.
-
Bacterial infections are generally uncommon in the oral mucosa due to the protective effects of saliva.
-
Syphilis is caused by Treponema pallidum and can have primary, secondary, and tertiary lesions.
-
Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and can result in non-healing chronic ulcers in the mouth.
-
Gonorrhea can rarely cause oral pharyngitis.
-
Actinomycosis is a chronic and granulomatous bacterial infection that can affect the jaw or head and neck.
-
Fungal infections, such as candidiasis, can cause white or red lesions in the mouth and are commonly treated with antifungal medications.Locations and Types of Deep Fungal Infections
-
Deep fungal infections are commonly found in soil.
-
