Comparison between periodontal disease and a gingival carcinoma with emphasis on radiographic imaging

Resumo

The majority of published papers deal mainly with prevalence, pathogenesis and treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the gingiva (SCCG). On the other hand, little is discussed about the comparison between periodontal disease and gingival carcinoma with emphasis on radiographic imaging. In this case report we discuss the importance of the radiographic aspects in inflammatory periodontal disease and SCCG. This case report shows the importance of differentiating a localized severe periodontal disease and SCCG considering the radiographic aspects of the inflammatory bone loss and tumoral bone loss. The oral health care providers need to be familiar with the radiographic imaging of periodontal disease and SCCG.
