Overview
Medical Therapy
The therapy for stomatitis is governed by following principles:[1]
- Oral or IV hydration
- Pain control
- Application of a barrier cream or jelly
- Zilactin, a combination of lidocaine and hydroxypropyl cellulose can be used to prevent the ulcers from further trauma and irritation.[2]
Denture stomatitis
- In most cases correction of denture fitness, avoidance of plaque development and avoidance of continuous wearing of dentures helps correct the defect. Antiseptic and antifungal agents are not required in most cases.[3]
Pyostomatitis vegetans
- Treatment of underlying IBD is very effective in eradicating pyostomatitis vegetates lesions.[4]
- In the absence of IBD, topical corticosteroids are useful.[5]
Trench mouth or acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis
- Nicotininc acid[6]
- Local therapy
- For systemic involvement[7]
- Amoxicillin, 250 mg TDS for 7 days
- Metronidazole, 250 mg TDS for 7 days
Candidal stomatitis
- Nystatin for disease limited to oral cavity
- Fluconazole 100mg PO for 7 to 14 days for systemic candidiasis or clotrimazole 10 mg torches 5 times daily for 14 days
Herpetic stomatitis
Noma or Gangrenous stomatitis
- High dose IV penicillin[11]
Criteria for Hospitalization
The patient who develops the following conditions must be institutionalized[12]
- Encephalitis
- Epiglotittis
- Pneumonitis
- Immunocompromised status
- Poor oral intake
