Filter by:Oral mucosal ulcers can determine a real worsening of the quality of life. Conventional therapy usually lasts not less than 2-3 weeks, and carries a high risk of serious side effects; furthermore, ulcers often recur. The use of hyaluronic acid applied as an adhesive gel over the lesions seems to have potential in terms of efficacy and the avoidance of side effects. Of course, hyaluronic acid-based formulations show different effects and tolerability. In this retrospective observational study, the results obtained using a hyaluronic-acid based medical device applied for 14 days to counteract ulcers in adults will be reported.
The aim of the study was to assess the safety, acceptability, and efficacy of product GV-328 for the treatment of childhood oral aphthous lesion.
The investigators will investigate whether the night guard can suppress the development of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS). The investigators will record the patients' oral condition for 60 days before and after intervention with the night guard made of Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate copolymer (EVA). The patients' saliva will be analyzed for measurement of inflammatory cytokines or oxidative stress.
Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a frequent condition characterized by recurrent and painful oral ulcers with unknown pathophysiology. Recent studies suggest that a dysregulation of the oral microbiota may be implicated. Currently, therapies for RAS are limited by severe side effects or inconstant effectiveness. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of a probiotic, the Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lcr35® , in the treatment of RAS. A placebo-controlled, parallel study will be conducted in 40 subjects with RAS. Treatment consisted on the administration of the daily probiotics or placebo during 3 months.All patients will be then followed up for additional 3months without treatment. The main outcome measure will be the number of occurring aphtae.
The intention of the study is to study the effects of Ibuprofen, Diphenhydramine and Aluminium MgS in decreasing the signs of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS)
Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common of oral mucosa diseases that affects approximately 20% of the general population. Despite the fact that clinical, pathologic and therapeutic feature of the disease has been comprehensively studied, the pathophysiology of aphthous ulcers remains incompletely understood. Zinc is a potent catalyst of wound healing and zinc deficiency may be a common cause of delayed tissue repair. Use of zinc sulfate in promotion wound healing and preservation of epithelial integrity advocated its possible use in the treatment or prevention of recurrent oral ulcers. The purpose of the present study was to determine of systemic zinc sulphate in the treatment of recurrent aphthous stomatitis.
The purpose of this research study is to find out if taking a multivitamin daily can affect the number of canker sores that people get and how long they last. Previous studies have shown that people who get canker sores are more likely to be deficient in one or more vitamins. It has also been found that correction of such vitamin deficiencies reduces the number and duration of canker sores. However, it is not known if taking a multivitamin daily will reduce the number and duration of canker sores.
This study offers evaluation and treatment of patients with diseases of the mouth or systemic diseases that involve the mouth. The protocol is not designed to test new treatments; rather, patients will receive current standard of care treatments. The purposes of the study are: 1) to allow NIDCR's Gene Therapy and Therapeutics Branch staff to gain more knowledge about oral soft tissue diseases and possibly identify new avenues of research in this area; and 2) to establish a pool of patients who may be eligible for new studies as they are developed. (Participants in this protocol will not be required to join a new study; the decision will be voluntary.) Patients of any age with oral diseases or systemic diseases involving the mouth may be eligible for this study. Women of childbearing potential and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding will only have tests and procedures and receive medications that pose no greater than a minimal risk to the fetus. Participants will have a comprehensive dental and medical examination, including a physical examination of the head and neck. Additional tests and procedures that may be required for diagnosis and to guide treatment include the following: - Blood and urine tests - for routine laboratory studies, assessment of kidney and liver function, and detection of viruses, fungi, bacteria or parasites - Electrocardiogram - to record the electrical activity of the heart - Biopsies - to examine tissue under the microscope. The method and number of biopsies depends on the individual's specific condition and the tissue to be removed. For all biopsies a local anesthetic (lidocaine with or without epinephrine) is injected at the biopsy site. A punch biopsy uses a small sharp cookie-cutter instrument to remove a small (about 1/10- to 1/5-inch) piece of skin. An excisional biopsy uses a small surgical knife or scalpel to remove a piece of tissue, usually requiring some stitches to close the wound. - Diagnostic imaging - X-rays, photographs, or other tests as needed for diagnosis Treatments include tablets, injections and topically applied medications. All preparations are approved by the Food and Drug Administration and are commercially available. Patient follow-up may vary from one visit to intermittent visits over a number of years, depending on the patient's condition.
