Soft tissue necrosis of oral cavity mucosa that occurs after high doses of radiation therapy may be attributed to the obliteration of small blood vessels or severe mucositis with ulceration. Irradiated epithelium is thinner than normal, appears pale and atrophic, and has telangiectatic vessels Cyst -an abnormal cavity in hard or soft tissue, which contains fluid or semi-fluid and is often encapsulated and lined with epithelium. 3. Cyst of the Oral Cavity: ODONTOGENIC CYST NON-ODONTOGENIC CYST. 4 There- fore, the probability of a soft tissue fibrous neoplasm, as compared with a benign epithelial neoplasm, in the oral cavity, becoming malignant is prac- tically nil and certainly would be worthy of a ease report Odontogenic orofacial infections arise either from dental caries or periodontal infections that have extended beyond the alveolar bone to involve the fascial spaces around the face and oral cavity. These infections tend to spread along planes of least resistance from the supporting structures of the affected tooth
Infection involving the oral cavity can be associated with significant morbidity. In addition, recent studies have suggested that some types of oral infection may potentially confound a number of systemic problems including cardiac disease, pregnancy, kidney disease, and diabetes. lymphadenopathy, pain, and soft tissue swelling. If the. C. Swelling and Bruising. Swelling can happen as a healing process. Educate the patient that peak swelling is generally the 3rd or 4th day after the procedure and then will gradually subside. Bruising is less common for soft tissue biopsies, but might happen depending on the extent of the procedure and the patient's age (e.g. older) or immunity
The inflammatory contents of the pulp may drain into the oral cavity via the cavitary lesion in the enamel, but more often extends through the necrotic apical root canal to invade the periapical soft tissue and alveolar bone, resulting in a localized periodontitis or dento-alveolar abscess Metastatic lesions in the oral soft tissue Gingiva followed by the tongue is the preferred oral soft tissue site for metastasizing lesions. Lesions usually manifest as a growth on the gingiva that resemble hyperplastic, reactive lesions like pyogenic granuloma, peripheral giant cell granuloma or fibrous hyperplasia
Saliva keeps the oral soft tissue moist and healthy, and buffers the oral environment, helping to neutralize acids that cause dental caries (cavities). Destruction of the salivary glands inhibits that buffering effect. This causes multiple consequences for oral health, such as susceptibility to caries (decay) and oral fungal infections The etiology may belong to a normal anatomical variant, cyst, inflammatory condition, congenital, or developmental anomaly, and neoplastic or non-neoplastic conditions. Pyogenic granuloma is one of the causes of soft tissue swelling of the oral cavity that probably results from excessive hyperplasia of the tissue in response to trauma swelling was irregular in shape and the borders were ill defi ned.

Since the mouth (oral cavity) is an extension of the digestive system, many diseases that affect your digestive system will also appear in your mouth. Some of the symptoms can be sore or bleeding gums, ulcerations, or a bad smell or taste; sometimes there are no symptoms. Some of the more common diseases are the following This vasodilatation combined with the frail mucosa of the soft palate and the trauma of chewing hard food may easily lead to bleeding. 2,5 ABH is also reported after other traumas in the oral cavity, such as surgical procedures by dentists, thermic injury, and intubation. 2,4,5 Other contributing factors might be long-term usage of in-halation.
Injuries to soft tissues can occur due to many causes but chemical, thermal, and physical agents are the main causative factors. Clinically, soft tissue injuries presentation differs but mainly present as erythema, edema, desquamation, burn, ulceration depending on the nature, type, concentration, quantity, duration of contact of causative agent with tissues, and extent of penetration of the. soft tissue defect, even a through and through defect from inside the oral cavity to the external cheek skin or an exposed bony segment, or even a missing of a segment of bone. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most prevalent cancer histology pattern in the oral cavity, counting for more than 90 % [1] Of all the fibrosarcomas occurring in humans, only 0.05% occurs in the head and neck region. Of this, almost 23% is seen in the oral cavity. Fibosarcomas generally have a poor prognosis and the overall survival rate is 20-35% over a period of 5 years. Wadhwan V, Chaudhary MS, Gawande M.

The oral cavity includes: The lips, teeth and gums. The front two-thirds of the tongue. The inner lining of the lips and cheeks (buccal mucosa) The area underneath the tongue (floor of the mouth) The roof of the mouth (hard palate) The small area behind the wisdom teeth. The oral changes from tobacco use range from harmless soft tissue changes to a life-threatening oral cancer. Your dentist is trained to perform an oral examination to detect tobacco use related abnormalities. Some of the more common of these are discussed below: Smoker's Melanosis. Smoker's melanosis (see Right) is increased tissue. Soft-tissue chondroma is a rare, benign, slow-growing tumor made up of heterotopic cartilaginous tissue. It occurs most commonly in the third and fourth decades in the hands and feet. Oral soft-tissue chondromas are uncommon and soft-tissue chondroma of gingiva is extremely uncommon. Here, we report an unusual case of soft-tissue chondroma of gingiva in a 50-year-old woman R22.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

Biopsy of the lesion revealed oral soft tissue myxoma. Wide excision with clinically clear margins was done under general anaesthesia. Histopathological report revealed the diagnosis as to be oral soft tissue myxoma. A case of oral soft tissue myxoma is presented for its rarity and for differential diagnosis of localized oral cavity lesions Typically, synovial sarcoma arises in the soft tissues of the extremities but cases in the head and neck region are less common and oral cavity involvement is extremely rare. A 17-year-old girl presented with a gradually increasing swelling on the right cheek for 2 years, which on biopsy, revealed a biphasic tumour comprising fascicles o Abstract. Lipomas are benign, slow growing, soft tissue mesenchymal tumors, usually involving the trunk and proximal parts of extremities and occasionally found within the oral cavity in locations such as the buccal mucosa, tongue, floor of mouth, palate, gingiva, lips and retromolar area

The only abnormal finding on he- matologic and biochemical testing was high WBC counts (range, 13,000 to 33,000 WBC/mm3). In five dogs, the primary neoplasm, located in the right side of the oral cavity, was an ill-defined, soft Schwannomas are benign, slow growing, encapsulated tumours that originate from the Schwann cells. Intraoral schwannomas are rare, and most of these tumours involve the tongue. They are rarely located in the hard palate or in the facial soft tissue. Herein, we present the clinical and histological features as well as the prognoses of two male patients with schwannoma, one of which was localized. Congenital cysts of the oral cavity are rare disorders, but they represent the most prevalent defects of soft tissues of the oral cavity. These include Epstein pearls, Bohn's nodules, gingival.
Lipomas are the most common soft tissue mesenchymal neoplasms, with 15 to 20% of the cases involving the head and neck region and 1 to 4% affecting the oral cavity9. Several histological types of lipoma have been described and reported in literature containing glandular structure, cartilage, bone, vascular component [ 10 - 13 ] The nasal cavity is located above the mouth and is separated from the mouth by the hard and soft palate. Within the oral cavity is the tongue, teeth, tissue supporting the teeth (gums and bone), and salivary glands. The pharynx, or throat, is the region located behind the oral cavity. IMPORTANCE OF THE DENTAL EXAMINATIO Leakage of small pockets of air in to soft tissues of cheek along vascular bundle is reported in a patient with ulcerated oral malignancy with history of recent biopsy. Leakage occurred during an attempt to puff the cheek during CT examination of oral cavity. Hereto undocumented phenomenon was self limiting and did not lead to clinical disability The aim of this study was to describe the clinical features of 18 cases of metastatic tumors to the oral cavity. The files of patients seen between 1992 and 2009 with oral (soft tissue and jawbones) metastatic lesions were reviewed. Clinical features, including gender, age, site of the primary tumor, site of metastatic tumor and treatment were evaluated Soft Tissue Calcification of MaxilloFacial Region - with Radiographs Sialoliths occur as single or multiple stones and can cause swelling and pain. The pain is experienced during salivary stimulation and is intensified at mealtimes. the radiopacity is a sialolith in the floor of the oral cavity (Clark's rule: same lingual, opposite.
In other oral soft-tissue locations, especially in the tongue, the metastatic lesion manifests as a submucosal mass. With progression of the disease, oral metastatic lesions, especially those located in the soft tissues, may cause progressive discomfort, pain, bleeding, superinfection, dysphagia, interference with mastication, and disfigurement The oral phase is completely voluntary and involves the entry of food into the oral cavity and preparation for swallowing; this includes mixing with saliva, mastication, and formation into a cohesive bolus in preparation for the swallow. It requires coordination of the lips, tongue, teeth, mandible, and soft palate as a possible modality for soft tissue surgery in the oral cavity. Based on the photothermal effect of the diode laser, the lesions of the oral mucosa are removed with an excision technique, or by ablation/vaporization procedures2,3,4. This report was done on the use of diode laser to surgically remove exophytic tissue and pigmente Oral Cavity Punch Biopsy Procedure 1. Apply Anesthesia. Apply topical and local anesthesia to the biopsy site. 2. Make an Incision Location. Biopsy site selection will follow the same principle as incisional biopsy: biopsy the most abnormal appearing site within a lesion or the edge of the lesion to obtain both normal tissue and lesional tissue
The buccal space (also termed the buccinator space) is a fascial space of the head and neck (sometimes also termed fascial tissue spaces or tissue spaces). It is a potential space in the cheek, and is paired on each side. The buccal space is superficial to the buccinator muscle and deep to the platysma muscle and the skin. The buccal space is part of the subcutaneous space, which is continuous. Pathologies of soft tissues can lead to destructions on adjacent surfaces not only due to invasion but due to compression. Therefore, in addition to odontogenic factors, surrounding soft tissue should also be investigated by computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging while searching for primary tumour site in the oral cavity Oral soft tissue pathology. a general term used to describe a small, knot like swelling of granulation tissue in the epidermis.

Discussion. Lipoma is a common, benign soft tissue neoplasm consisting of mature adipocytes usually found in the subcutaneous tissue of the trunk, proximal limbs, thigh and neck. 20% of lipomas are found in the head and neck region with 1-5% found in the oral cavity Background The development of soft tissue cervicofacial emphysema after dental treatment is a rare complication, with few descriptions in the dermatologic literature. It is usually restricted to only moderate local swelling. However, spread of larger amounts of air into deeper spaces may sometimes cause serious complications, including airway compromise due to accumulation of air in the. Oral Cysts and Tumors - 5 - • Pain control: Your doctor may prescribe anti-inflammatory or opioid pain medications to help control pain or discomfort following surgery. • Swelling: Swelling is a normal side-effect of surgery but the degree varies between individuals. You can expect to have the most swelling between days 3-5 after your surgery In myelosuppressed cancer patients, the oral cavity can also be a source of systemic infection. Radiation of the head and neck can irreversibly injure oral mucosa, vasculature, muscle, and bone, resulting in xerostomia, rampant dental caries, trismus, soft tissue necrosis, and osteonecrosis About the Maxillary Soft Tissue. The maxilla is the bone forming the upper part of the human jaw and the lowest anterior portion of the skull. Within the maxilla, there are hollow spaces, called sinuses, on both sides of the nasal cavity. These sinuses are lined with soft mucous producing tissues
Althought hemangioma is considered one of the most common soft tissue tumors of the head and neck , it is relatively rare in the oral cavity and uncommonly encountered by the clinicians. They may be cutaneous, involving skin, lips and deeper structures; mucosal, involving the lining of the oral cavity; intramuscular, involving masticator and. et al. (6) found only 41 cases of oral soft tissue myofi-broma. Typically, this lesion is seen in neonates and infants with few cases reported in adults patients. In the oral cavity, the tumor frequently occurs within the submu-cosal or intramuscular tissue and has a predilection by the tongue, buccal mucosa and lips.

Sarcoma of the oral cavity most often affects the sides of the tongue, the back of the soft palate and the bottom of the mouth. Sarcomas in the tongue and the bottom of the mouth are squamous cell carcinomas. In the sky most often develops Kaposi's sarcoma. Neoplasm is a lesion of the blood vessels that passes near the upper layer of cells. leiyomyosarcoma, angiosarcoma, and alveolar soft part sarcoma. Soft tissue sarcoma may involve any part of oral cavity which is usually presents as a slow- or rapid-growing swelling of the mucosa.2 Fibrosarcoma is a neoplasm composed of malignant fibroblasts that produce collagen and elastin. Occurs equally in male and females.4 Mos Soft tissue swelling traps the plaque in the pocket. Continued inflammation leads to damage of the tissues and bone surrounding the tooth. Because plaque contains bacteria, infection is likely, and a tooth abscess may also develop
