Abstract

We report a case of contact stomatitis due to a periodontal dressing material (surgical pack N®). In July 2007, a 42-year-old woman presented at our hospital complaining of pain in the mouth. The patient had severe pain due to stomatitis around the upper right gingiva and buccal mucosal membrane in contact with a periodontal dressing material which had been placed for wound protection after a flap operation for peri-inplantitis at a dental clinic. An allergic reaction was suspected in the region surrounding the periodontal dressing material. The patient underwent a patch test for some dental metals, periodontal dressing materials and liquid inside periodontal dressing materials. As a result, the liquid of a periodontal dressing material was indicated as the source of the stomatitis. After removing the periodontal dressing material, the stomatitis and symptoms disappeared.
