Desquamative gingivitis is a manifestation of various dermatoses, particularly lichen planus and mucous membrane pemphigoid. A rare example of adult linear immunoglobulin A disease manifesting as desquamative gingivitis is presented. Although the initial clinical features were typical of desquamative gingivitis, the persistence of ulceration after dental extractions was unusual, and the management of the oral lesions proved difficult. The clinical, immunopathologic, and therapeutic aspects of linear immunoglobulin A dermatoses are reviewed.

Treatment of symptomatic cyclosporine-induced gingival hyperplasia can be challenging, especially if continued use of cyclosporine is necessary for adequate control of the underlying disease. We outline a simplified approach for conservatively managing cyclosporine-induced gingival hyperplasia using azithromycin and chlorhexidine.

Periodontitis, a prevalent and costly oral disease, remains incompletely understood in its etiopathogenesis. The conventional model attributes it to pathogenic bacteria, but emerging evidence suggests dysbiosis involving bacteria, herpesviruses, and an exaggerated host immune response. Among herpesviruses, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) closely links to severe periodontitis, yet the mechanisms underlying EBV-related pathogenesis remain elusive.

Background/purpose: Periodontitis is associated with systemic health. One of the underlying mechanisms is the translocation of periodontal pathogens, among which () is the most common. Here, we aimed to illustrate the biodistribution and dynamics of from gingiva to multiple organs through blood circulation.
