2Bulla - larger than 5 mm and contain serum and mucinPustule - may be greater or less than 5 mm and contains yellow pus
3Papule - is less that 5 mm and contain tissueNodule - is greater than 5 mm an contain tissue
4Black Line Stain - Gram Positive Bacteria Typically Located on cervical 1/3 of facials and lingualsBrown Stain - Associated with poor oral hygiene and drinking bark colored beverages
5Dark -Brown to Black Stain - Associated with tobacco useOrange Stain - Chromogenic Bacteria in Plaque ; Associated with poor oral hygiene typically located on anterior teeth
6Yellow Brown & Brown Stain - Can be associated with chlorhexidine or stannous fluoride use , stannous fluoride stain results from the reaction of the tin ion in the fluorideGreen Stain - associated with poor oral hygiene chromogenic bacteria , fungi , and gingival hemorrhage
7Purple/blue enlarged vessels observed on the enroll and lateral surfaces of the tongue , Usually seen in elderly patientsGray opalescence on the oral tissue , especially the buccal mucosa , Cannot be rubbed off but disappears when the tissue is stretched
Most commonly observed in black adults and smokers
8Basal Cell Carcinoma : Malignancy of the basal cells (deepest layer of the epidermic , Melanocytes are found in this layer. Associated with excessive sun exposure, MOST COMMON type of skin Cancer, DOES NOT occur in the oral cavity Characterized by non -healing ulcer in roller bordersBenign slow growing and aggressive odontogenic tumor
Characterized by soap bubbles or honeycombed radiolucencies 80% develop i the mandible and most often in the rams area
May cause expansion of the bone
Recurrence is common
