Overview
The natural history and complications vary for each type of stomatitis. The prognosis for most types is good.
Natural History
- If left untreated herpetic stomatitis resolves after the vesicles erupt and the ulcers heal. The HSV travels length nerves and moves to the ganglions where it stays in latent form. When the host becomes immunocompromised after taking medications or due to some other illness, the virus assesses the opportunity and through the same nerves becomes active once again manifesting symptoms such as oral vesicles.[1]
- The viral shedding can continue for 2-12 days after primary infection.[2]
Complications
Some complications of stomatitis include[1][3]
Life threatening complications
- Meningoencephalitis
Other Common Complications
- Recurrent skin and mouth infections
- Dissemination of the infection
Noma Complications
- Teeth loss
Prognosis
- Pyostomatitis vegetans has no malignant potential and treatment of underlying IBD is very effective to eradicate them. The prognosis is good.[4]
