Oral Lesions - An AnatomyGrowths can occur on the inside of the mouth, most commonly on the inner cheek surfaces, on gums or gingival tissue and on the tongue. The causes or etiology of these lesions, aberrations or growths can be multiple.Canker Sores - Aphthous UlcersThis type of lesion appears inside the mouth. These lesions are essentially a small ulcer with a white or gray base and red border. They can occur in single or multiple instances.Considered not contagious, they are often associated with immune system problems, viral infections and bacterial conditions. Even with treatment, they can become recurrent. Aggravation of tissues, such as a cut or biting of the tongue or cheek can cause canker sores to appear. Stress and certain allergies can become a factor. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's Disease also seem to be an influential factor. Cold Sores
Another common sore, often referred to as fever blisters or herpes simplex, are fluid-filled blisters that can become painful if untreated.They often erupt around the lips and sometimes under the nose or around the chin. Considered contagious, these sores are caused by Herpes Virus Type 1. They are frequently confused with symptoms of a cold or flue. Aphthous Laser TreatmentsAphthous ulcers, cold sores and other tongue lesions in many cases can be treated efficiently and comfortably with the use of a specialized laser. Dr. Nemeth's treatments typically bring immediate relief to painful sores and initiate a healing process that can be near complete within just a matter of days.
