Oral Infections • Presence of oral infection can negatively impact
quality of life
• Infectious disease paradigm, culturing and
sensitivity testing, contamination?
• Accurate diagnosis is key, and often based on
clinical presentation and parameters
• Symptoms may be inflammatory or non-existent
• Seek appropriate consultation
• Etiology is microbial organisms that have evolved
and co-existed millions of years
– Fungal, Viral and Bacterial
![Page 3: Oral Infections - Kern County Dental Society › wp-content › uploads › 2016 › 10 › 1.-Oral-In… · •Self-limiting in most cases, younger patients to adults, inflammatory](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042309/5ed59f441b7fdd786a1b5a21/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
FUNGAL
• Oral fungal infections are superficial
(biofilm) and are mostly caused by
Candida species (C. albicans)
• Opportunistic infection, disease not
commonly seen in healthy individuals even
if they harbor the organism
• Often seen in the immunocompromised,
the elderly, or in patients taking antibiotics
which alters oral flora
![Page 4: Oral Infections - Kern County Dental Society › wp-content › uploads › 2016 › 10 › 1.-Oral-In… · •Self-limiting in most cases, younger patients to adults, inflammatory](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042309/5ed59f441b7fdd786a1b5a21/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Candidiasis
An opportunistic infection, by a dimorphic organism which can involve nearly any site
Systemically candidemia is the 4th-5th most common cause of nosocomial septicemia in most hospitals
![Page 5: Oral Infections - Kern County Dental Society › wp-content › uploads › 2016 › 10 › 1.-Oral-In… · •Self-limiting in most cases, younger patients to adults, inflammatory](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042309/5ed59f441b7fdd786a1b5a21/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
In oral mucosal cases, one pathogen
usually (C. albicans) predominates, but
there are many clinical presentations
described:
Pseudomembranous
Erythematous
Central Papillary Atrophy
Angular Cheilitis
Hyperplastic
Cheilocandidosis
Chronic Mucocutaneous
HIV-associated

Pseudomembranous
White plaques that can be wiped off classically, but almost never associated with a subjacent ulcer or bleeding base
![Page 7: Oral Infections - Kern County Dental Society › wp-content › uploads › 2016 › 10 › 1.-Oral-In… · •Self-limiting in most cases, younger patients to adults, inflammatory](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042309/5ed59f441b7fdd786a1b5a21/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Erythematous
More common variant than pseudomembranous

Central Papillary Atrophy
• Formerly: median rhomboid glossitis

Angular Cheilitis
Saliva pooling is thought to predispose to
infection in this area, such as when
sufficient VDO is lacking with prostheses
May be associated with superimposed
bacterial infection (skin Staph & Strep)
Ideally treat with Vytone® (iodoquinol)
cream, 1%, 28.4g tube (30g), qid

Hyperplastic
Often mistaken for true leukoplakia
(dysplasia) because does not wipe off,
and cultures may often be negative
because organisms are difficult to
dislodge from their keratotic plaque
Biopsy when in doubt…

Cheilocandidosis
Lip licking habits thought to be key to etiology
May have superimposed bacterial infection also, making it difficult to treat

VIRAL
• Self-limiting in most cases, younger patients
to adults, inflammatory symptomatology and
clinically lesions may mimic vesiculobullous
disease (transudate vs. exudate)
• Some are sexually transmitted diseases,
with medico-legal implications (e.g. children)
• Treatment palliative in most cases,
sometimes additional tests necessary for
accurate diagnosis clinically
• Some conditions are thought to be stress-
induced…

HPV • HPV-related oropharyngeal cancers expected
to outnumber cervical HPV cancers in a little
over a decade?
• HPV vaccination (e.g. Gardasil or Cervarix) to
prevent oropharyngeal cancers?
• Prevent potentially high-risk sexual practices?
• Biopsy squamous lesions and determine if
HPV positive and subtype (e.g. high risk
16,18?)
• All oral cancer biopsy specimens should be
tested for HPV via in situ hybridization?

Viral Treatment
• Palliative, hydration
• Non-aspirin NSAID’s prn to avoid potentially
fatal Reye’s Syndrome in kids
• Underlying disorders, work-ups?
• Acyclovir / Valacyclovir for adult Herpes virus
infections
• Cryotherapy, cautery or laser ablation for HPV
lesions (avoid caustic chemicals)

BACTERIAL
• Most oral bacterial infections start as a biofilm
disease, but can potentially spread to represent
planktonic disease (exudate vs. transudate)
• Most oral bacterial infections are odontogenic,
meaning they originate from tooth or tooth
supporting structures such as the periodontium
• Many infections start with aerobic bacteria
initially and then shift to anaerobes
• Patients may complain of inflammatory
symptomatology or none at all!
• Poor oral hygiene, certain systemic conditions or
medications may increase risk for oral infection

Bacterial Treatment
• Remove source of biofilm infection when
possible
– caries removal, scaling, extraction, I&D,
debridement/curettage/sequestrectomy
• Antibiotics
– Oral vs IV
– Oral chlorhexidine irrigation
– Empirical (target usual suspects) or culture and
sensitivity testing for more targeted therapy
• Underlying disorders, work-ups?

Summary
• Fungal, viral and bacterial infections have
unique clinical characteristics and features
• Recognition of these features such as
lesion morphology and patient
presentation can aid in diagnosis often
without any additional tests or work-up
• Treatment is aimed at the specific group of
organisms involved
