Abstract

Relatoinship between the presence of Helicobacter pylory and different symptoms and diseases in the oral cavity was investigated. Atrophic glossitis was positive for H. pylori in 17 of 87 cases and glossitis was positive in only 1 of 37 cases.

Abstract

Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to detect the presence of Helicobacter pylon in tongue mucosa in 268 patients divided into four groups according to their diagnosis: 87 with atrophic glossitis, 37 with benign migratory glossitis and 144 with burning mouth syndrome (BMS). The tatter group was subdivided according to anatomic site of burning sensation: subgroup A (54 patients) with complaints limited to tongue and subgroup B (90 patients) with burning sensations in other parts of oral mucosa. H. pylon was found in 43 samples (16%}. Bacteria were significantly less present in tongue mucosa affected with benign migratory glossitis compared with atrophic glossitis and BMS (P-0.025). This difference was more obvious when compared with atrophic glossitis only (P= 0.006). Mucosal changes in these conditions might make the oral environment more acceptable tar H. pylon colonization compared with normal mucosa, and this mechanism may play a role in its oro-oral transmission.
