Overview
The exact cause of aphthous ulcers is unknown. Factors that provoke them include stress, fatigue, illness, injury from accidental biting, hormonal changes, menstruation, sudden weight loss, food allergies, the foaming agent in toothpaste (SLS), and deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron, and folic acid.[1] Some drugs, such as nicorandil, also have been linked with mouth ulcers. In some cases they are thought to be caused by an overreaction by the body's own immune system.
Causes
Trauma
Trauma to the mouth is the most common trigger of aphthous ulcers and includes:[2][3][4]
- Toothbrush abrasions
- Laceration with sharp foods or objects
- Accidental biting (particularly common with sharp canine teeth)
- Dental braces
Drugs
Common medications, that can result in recurrent aphthous stomatitis, include:
Genetic Factors
The role of genetic factors is the best-defined underlying cause of aphthous ulcer. Certain genetically specific HLAs which have been identified in aphthous ulcer patients include:[5]
- HLA-A2
- HLA-B5, B12, B44, B51, B52
- HLA-DR2 and HLA-DR7
- HLA-DQ series
Nutritional Factors
Aphthous ulcers are commonly seen in nutritional deficiencies. Low serum levels of following elements may result in recurrent aphthous ulcer:[6]
Allergic Factors
It is thought that aphthous ulcer may be caused by hypersensitivity to certain allergens such as:[7][8]
- Environmental allergens
- Food allergens
- Milk
- Chocolate
- Cheese
- Nuts
- Tomatoes
- Wheat
SLS containing Toothpaste
The large majority of toothpastes sold in the U.S. contain Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), which is known to cause aphthous ulcers in certain individuals.[9][10]
Microbial Factors
It is thought that aphthous ulcers may be caused by microbial factors such as:[11][12][13]
- Streptococcus sanguis
- Helicobacter pylori
- Varicella zoster
- Cytomegalovirus
- Coxsackie A
- Herpes simplex
- Epstein-Barr
- HIV
- Tuberculosis
- Syphilis
- Coccidioides immitis
- Cryptococcus neoformans
- Blastomyces dermatidis[14]
Systemic Disease
Common systemic conditions that may be caused in aphthous ulcer are include:[15][16]
- Behcet syndrome
- MAGIC syndrome
- Cyclic neutropenia
- Crohn’s disease
- Ulcerative colitis
- Celiac disease
- HIV
- Cyclic neutropenia
- PFAPA (periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, cervical adenitis)
- Sweet syndrome Familial Mediterranean fever
- Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D with periodic fever syndrome
- Anemia
- Neutropenia
- Hypereosinophilic syndrome
- Lichen planus
- Linear IgA bullous dermatosis
- Epidermolysis bullosa
- Chronic granulomatous disease
- Wegener’s granulomatosis[14]
Others
- Stress
- Fatigue
- Illness
- Smoking
- Hormonal changes
- Menstruation
- Sudden weight loss
- Pemphigus vulgaris
- Linear IgA disease
- Erythema multiforme[14]
