Recurrent herpetic infection on the mobile mucosa such as the oral floor, has not been reported previously. A case of recurrent herpetic infection of the oral floor in a 52-year-old man is presented. This case illustrates the fact that recurrent herpetic lesions can occur anywhere in the intra-oral mucosa.
In the oral region, granular cell tumors often occur in the tongue, but rarely in the buccal mucosa. A case of granular cell tumor in the right buccal mucosa of a 74 year-old female is described. An elastic-hard solid mass about 1 cm in diameter was palpated under the right buccal mucosa. It was well-defined from the proximal tissues and adhered to part of the buccal mucosa. As a result of a biopsy, the diagnosis of a granular cell tumor was made. The tumor was resected together with the surrounding tissues under local anesthesia. Histopathological examination revealed large tumor cells with eosinophilic, PAS-positive fine granules under the hyperplastic epithelium. The granular cells stained negatively with PTAH, but positively with S-100 protein. Electron microscopic observations revealed a number of lysosomes of various sizes and densities within the cytoplasm of the tumor cells.

The concentration gradient and distribution of a metallic constituent in dentin which has been subjected to iontophoresis, using a water solution of silver diamine hydroxide and zinc chloride, were analyzed by means of EPMA as a basic study for pulp capping or cavity lining. Line scanning analyses parallel to the tooth axis showed that the transportation distance of metallic ions depends strongly on potential, period of iontophoresis and structural differences in dentin. Although metallic silver or zinc was found in the dentinal tubules, there was one case in which no metal was observed. The change in the distribution can be described as power function.
