Traumatic injuries may involve the mouth that may usually lead to the formation of surface ulcerations. The injuries may result from events such as accidentally biting oneself while talking, sleeping, or secondary to mastication. There are other forms of mechanical trauma, as well as chemical, electrical and thermal insults, may also be involved. In addition, fractured, carious, or malformed teeth, as well as the premature eruption of teeth, can contribute to the formation of surface ulcerations. Poorly maintained and those ill-fitting dental prosthetic appliances may also cause trauma.
It is rarely that infection is a consequence of a traumatic event. Chronic ulcerations as a result of trauma. Patients may report a history of ulceration after a traumatic event such as biting oneself while talking, sleeping, or secondary to mastication; mechanical trauma; and chemical, electrical, or thermal insults. In most cases, the source of the injury is identified and the patient’s usual complaint is pain or a painful ulceration. Traumatic ulcers are usually sensitive to hot, spicy, or salty foods.
Sublingual ulcerations may occur as a result of chronic mucosal trauma due to adjacent anterior primary teeth of infants. The major traumatic injuries in this group include electrical and/or thermal burns of the lips. Extensive ulcerations with necrosis may develop. Children tend to be curious about electrical cords and other items unknown to them, and as they explore these items, they tend to put them in their mouth.Ulcers are typically the result of traumatic injuries related to carious, fractured, or abnormal teeth; involuntary movements of the tongue and mandible; ill-fitting maxillary and/or mandibular dentures; overheated foods; and xerostomia.
Nocturnal parafunctional habits like bruxism, the clenching and grinding of the teeth and thumb sucking, may be related with the development of traumatic ulcers of the buccal mucosa, the labial mucosa, the lateral borders of the tongue, and the palate. In addition, local irritants such as fractured or malposed teeth and ill-fitting dentures may cause mucosal ulcers of the buccal mucosa, the lateral and ventral surfaces of the tongue, and the alveolar mucosa overlying the osseous structures. The common etiology of traumatic ulcers include: denture irritation, biting injuries, hard foods, chemicals, toothbrush and dry cotton rolls.
The treatment of choice is to remove the cause if it is known. Relief of pain can be achieved with topical anesthetics such as Orabase with Benzocaine. The healing of the ulcerated mucosa is usually delayed when the lesions overlie the maxillary or mandibular alveolar process. Ulcerations may be the result of voluntary, self-induced, and deliberate acts by patients with physical or psychological symptoms who are seeking medical attention. Butler et al report a patient with a congenital insensitivity to pain. The patient presented with self-mutilation bite injuries to the oral tissues and to his hands.
One of the most effective and highly recommended treatment for traumatic injuries in the oral cavity is Aktiv-K12 ProBiotic Powder (with AO Serum) which speeds up healing process and prevents further infection to the affected site. It also prevents other oral diseases like tonsillitis and tonsilloliths.
The ulcer should heal if the cause is removed. An ulcer which does not heal within two to three weeks should be biopsied to rule out malignancy. Traumatic ulcers must be differentiated from squamous carcinoma and ulcerative mucosal diseases such as lichen planus.
P.S. This is the proven method I recommend to my friends and readers. Read testimonials from previous sufferers.
