[An epidemiological study on dental-periodontal pathology in a sample of the school-age population of the city of Naples. I. Periodontal pathology].

The paper reports the results of a study of the prevalence of periodontal diseases found in a sample group, aged between 6 and 18, resident in Naples. The structure of the survey, the clinical methods of collecting data and the statistical processing of data were carried out according to WHO directives regarding the study of oral pathologies.

[Lichen planus of the oral mucosa. Etiopathogenetic aspects].

A great boost to research into LP aetiopathogenesis has been forthcoming from recent studies that define its connection with chronic hepatopathies. This subject is addressed by giving considerable room to these new research approaches, although other aspects, such as the relationship with dental materials, are not neglected. The proposal of a model of aetiopathogenetic mechanism obtained by analysis of the data supplied by bibliographic research furnishes a contribution to the subject consisting essentially of giving an overall, omni-inclusive view of recent findings on the aetiopathogenesis of LP and in connecting these significantly for the purpose of obtaining better understanding of the physiopathology of the disease.

[Oral lichen planus and dental materials. Etiopathogenetic and clinical relations].

The oral mucosa may be the site of lesions attributable to contact allergy with dental material. Studies carried out show that in oral LP dental materials may represent a factor of by no means negligible importance in determining the lesion as they might be the triggering cause and subsequently influence course and development. On the basis of these observations, an interpretative model of the aetiopathogenetic relationship between dental materials and oral LP is proposed and the problem is also addressed from the clinical viewpoint. The essential aspects are outlined and a diagnostic-therapeutic protocol proposed that differentiates patients suffering from oral LP with presence of dental materials and those without.

[Oral lichen planus and chronic hepatopathy. Clinico-statistical study].

Recent researches on the aetiopathogenesis of lichen planus have revealed a significant physiopathological and clinical association of this disease with the chronic hepatopathies. A clinico-statistical investigation has been carried out for the purpose of ascertaining the real importance of oral LP in the economy of this association. The results substantially demonstrated that oral LP, particularly the erosive variety, rather than cutaneous or cutaneous-mucosa clinical forms, occupies a central role in relation to association with the chronic hepatopathies (an important factor for diagnosis and predictive purposes). It has also been found that the erosive variety presents a significantly higher frequency in forms of LP with an exclusively oral involvement. Hence the need to propose an interdisciplinary type clinico-diagnostic approach to LP patients, particularly those with erosive type oral LP.

Chronic Disease↗

[Oral aphthae].

The Authors present a modern treatment of the Recurrent Aphthous Ulcers (R.A.U.) with antibiotics, C vit. and intestinal flora as prophylaxis, with laser against pain and with cortisone to depress the immunitary origin of disease. They briefly analyze some clinical cases.
