Mucosal diseases of the tongue, such as lingua geographica and lingua villosa, are relatively common and are usually harmless, such as lingua geographica and lingua villosa, but can also be more serious, such as oral cavity carcinoma of the tongue. In this article we discuss the diagnosis and treatment of the most common mucosal diseases of the tongue. The influence of underlying systemic conditions, certain medications and preventive advice are also discussed.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the relationship between the Geographic Tongue Area and Severity Index (GTASI) scores and the histopathological features of geographic tongue lesions, an oral condition with unclear causes.
  • - Conducted with 40 participants, the results show that 60% had mild cases, with common histological traits observed, such as parakeratosis and basal layer hyperplasia, regardless of severity levels.
  • - Findings indicate that while mild cases exhibit low inflammatory response, more severe cases show distinct histopathological features, suggesting a strong link between the clinical severity of geographic tongue and its histological characteristics.

Article Synopsis
  • Psoriasis is linked to fissured tongue (FT) in the Han population of southwestern China, with a significant association found (p < 0.001), while geographic tongue (GT) showed no strong connection (p = 0.760).
  • Patients with FT tend to be older and have more severe psoriasis, worsening quality of life compared to those without FT.
  • Limitations of the study include potential skewing in the prevalence of GT due to its variable nature, and the influence of biologic treatments that may affect the GT/FT ratios among participants.

Article Synopsis
  • - Stomatitis migrans is a common, benign variation of the oral mucosa affecting about 1.0-2.5% of the population, particularly more prevalent in young adults and women.
  • - The exact cause (etiology) of stomatitis migrans is unknown, but it appears to have a genetic component as it occurs more frequently within families.
  • - Clinically, it presents as distinct red areas with a yellowish border, which are well-defined (demarcated).
