Gingivostomtitis not a synonym for herpetic gingivostomatitis

[edit]

Gingivostomatitis is general, descriptive term describing any inflammation of the gums and mouth. Herpetic gingivostomatitis is one cause of gingivostomatitis, but they are not interchangeable terms. Lesion (talk) 00:41, 27 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Main picture

[edit]

The picture appears to be orthodontic movement of the tooth outside of alveolor bone, not primary herpetic gingivostomatitis. The crown appears continuous with the supposed "ulcer", which I propose is actually the surface of the root. 66.249.85.233 (talk) 23:22, 11 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
