Diseases of the teeth (dentistry)

Most patients turn to the dentist with complaints about pain in the jaw area. It should be understood that toothache in pulpitis - symptoms that are subjective, despite the fact that in terms of intensity, they can be compared with renal colic. The perception of pain largely depends on the personality of the patient, which makes it difficult to assess objectively.

Macroheilitis (granulomatous cheilitis Micher) is the leading symptom of the Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome (Rossolimo-Melkersson-Rosenthal). The disease is characterized by a combination of macrochilite, folded tongue and paralysis of the facial nerve. Macroheilitis has a chronic course with alternating periods of exacerbation and remission.

Chronic lip fracture often develops on the lower lip, but localization is possible on the upper lip (24%). The course of this disease is prolonged with alternation of remissions and relapses, which is facilitated by neurodistrophic and metabolic disturbances revealed in the tissues surrounding the chronic fissure.

Atopic cheilitis is a polyethological disease, where along with heredity, a large role is played by risk factors in the environment. Exogenous risk factors contribute to the development of exacerbations and chronic course of the disease.
