Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common oral mucosal diseases, characterized by recurrent and painful ulcerations of the mobile or non-keratinized oral mucosa. These lesions are often found on the tongue, labial, and buccal mucosa. Clinically, RAS is divided into three types: minor, major, and herpetiform. The minor type is the most common and has smaller lesions, while the major type has larger lesions and often leaves scars. The herpetiform type is characterized by numerous small lesions appearing simultaneously. Factors influencing the immunological response in RAS include genetic predisposition, viral and bacterial infections, food allergies, vitamin and microelement deficiencies, systemic diseases, stress, and hormonal disorders. Several studies have shown that these factors can trigger or worsen the occurrence of RAS lesions. In addition, emotional and physical stress can contribute to increasing the frequency or duration of ulceration. A 36-year-old female patient presented with pain on the inside of the lower lip that had lasted for 10 days. An intraoral examination revealed a unilateral, yellowish-white ulcer on the inner lower lip surrounded by a distinct, reddish erythema. The lesion was approximately 2-3 mm in size, single in size, soft in consistency, and symptomatic. Based on these findings, the treatment plan includes a complete blood count (CBC), which measures various blood components, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. This examination is necessary to obtain further information regarding the cause of RAS in this patient. RAS is a multifactorial lesion that can occur in the oral mucosa. Supportive tests such as a complete blood count (CBC) are very useful in establishing the diagnosis and providing further guidance in planning appropriate therapy. Appropriate medication is expected to help the patient recover from complaints and prevent recurrence. Keywords : Recurrent Apthous Stomatitis, Laboratory, Stress

Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a common inflammatory condition of the oral mucosa characterized by round or oval ulcers with well-defined reddish borders and a shallow base covered by a grayish or yellowish fibrinous pseudomembrane. RAS is generally classified into three clinical types—minor, major, and herpetiform based on the size, number, and duration of the lesions. Several factors contribute to its occurrence, including bacterial infections such as Streptococcus sanguis, immune system dysfunctions, and nutritional deficiencies involving iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid. Other potential triggers include local trauma, hormonal or endocrine imbalances, psychological stress, and allergic reactions. Among these, anemia due to deficiencies in iron, folate, or vitamin B12 is considered an important etiopathogenic factor, although its exact role has not been fully clarified. The management of RAS primarily focuses on symptom relief, promoting faster ulcer healing, and preventing recurrence through both topical and systemic approaches. Effective treatment often includes improving nutritional intake, maintaining oral hygiene, and addressing underlying systemic or psychological conditions. Understanding the multifactorial causes of RAS is crucial in developing comprehensive strategies for prevention and long-term management of this recurrent oral lesion.

Oral candidiasis pseudomembranous is an infection of the oral cavity caused by microorganisms such as fungi, specifically due to the overgrowth of Candida albicans. It frequently manifests in individuals with impaired local or systemic immunity, or those with specific behavioral risk factors. Predisposing factors, such as habitual alcohol consumption and smoking, play a significant role in reducing the resilience of the oral mucosa and altering the balance of the normal oral flora. This case report aims to examine the correlation between behavioral risk factors and the development of pseudomembranous oral candidiasis. A 22-year-old male was reported to have a lesion consisting of thick, raised, whitish plaques that were non-scrapable and asymptomatic. The patient had an unhealthy lifestyle, including alcohol consumption and smoking two packs per day, along with poor oral hygiene. To confirm the suspicion of oral thrush, a potassium hydroxide (KOH) examination was performed, which revealed the presence of Candida albicans. This led to therapeutic management using Nystatin (Candistatin) and Chlorhexidine, complemented by mechanical treatment with a tongue scraper. Pseudomembranous oral candidiasis in this 22-year-old male patient is a classic example in which local behavioral risk factors and lifestyle act as the main triggers of infection.

Background: Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most frequently encountered oral mucosal conditions. Although RAS has been extensively considered clinically and through research, ulcer occurrence remains unavoidable, and most treatment approaches are primarily symptomatic. Objective: To identify anxiety as a predisposing factor in patients with minor RAS. Case Report: A 24-year-old female patient presented to Soelastri Dental and Oral Hospital with a complaint of an ulcer on the right upper lip. The patient reported pain and a burning sensation for the past four days. The pain worsened when consuming hot food or beverages. The patient had experienced similar episodes previously but had never sought treatment for this condition. Intraoral examination revealed a single shallow ulcer with an oval shape, regular margins, a yellowish-white base surrounded by an erythematous halo, measuring 3 × 2 mm on the right upper lip, and was symptomatic. Case Management: The treatment provided focused primarily on Communication, Information, and Education (CIE). The patient was informed about the predisposing factor experienced, which may contribute to the occurrence of RAS, namely anxiety. The patient also received education regarding maintaining oral hygiene, consuming fruits and vegetables, increasing water intake, eating more regularly, attending a follow-up visit seven days after treatment, and managing anxiety. Conclusion: In this case, RAS management was focused on eliminating predisposing factors, particularly anxiety, which was strongly suspected to be the triggering factor for minor RAS in this patient.

Geographic tongue or benign migratory glossitis is a benign disorder of the oral mucosa that is relatively common in dental practice. This condition is characterized by erythematous areas caused by the loss of filiform papillae surrounded by irregular white borders. To understand the clinical characteristics of geographic tongue and the contributing factors involved in the development of the lesion in order to establish an appropriate diagnosis and provide adequate patient education. A 25-year-old female patient presented with complaints of patches on the tongue for approximately two months. The patient had been following an OMAD (One Meal A Day) diet for one year and reported an allergy to white rice. The patient also had a history of psoriasis. Nutritional deficiencies such as vitamin B complex, vitamin B12, folic acid, iron, and zinc may affect the integrity of the oral mucosa and disrupt the regeneration of the lingual epithelium. These conditions may lead to atrophy of the filiform papillae, resulting in the characteristic erythematous appearance of geographic tongue. In addition, immunological and inflammatory factors associated with psoriasis are also suspected to contribute to lesion development. Geographic tongue is a benign inflammatory condition with a multifactorial etiology, including nutritional deficiencies and immunological factors such as psoriasis. Evaluation of systemic conditions and nutritional status is important to support accurate diagnosis and proper patient management.
