- The Oral Pathology course focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of
diseases of the oral mucosa and perioral tissues, including inflammatory,
infectious, or neoplastic conditions, often related to systemic conditions.
Typical content includes the study of precancerous lesions and oral
cancer, infectious diseases such as fungal infections and herpes
infections, salivary gland problems, inflammatory diseases and their
manifestations in the oral cavity, and the management of frail patients - Reference texts

- Oral pathology and medicine is the branch of dentistry focused on the
prevention, diagnosis, treatment planning, and rehabilitation of infectious
(stomatitis, mycosis), autoimmune (lichen, lupus, aphthous stomatitis),
and neoplastic (tumors) diseases affecting the oral and perioral tissues.
The study of this discipline also includes oral semiotics and the oral
manifestations of systemic diseases.
Its primary objective is the monitoring of neoplastic diseases, from
supportive drug therapy to potential drug interactions between medical
treatments (osteoporosis and bisphosphonates), to surgical excision of
lesions and modification of unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as smoking
and alcohol, which can increase the risk factors for developing oral
diseases. - Prerequisites
