Chronic ulcerative stomatitis
Chronic ulcerative stomatitis is a condition with specific immunopathologic features, which was first described in 1990. It is characterized by erosions and ulcerations which relapse and remit. Lesions are located on the buccal mucosa (inside of the cheeks) or on the gingiva (gums). The condition resembles oral lichen planus when biopsied.
The diagnosis is made by  microscopic examination of biopsy tissue: direct immunofluorescence can reveal the presence of antinuclear antibodies specifically directed against the ΔNp63α form of the p63 protein, which is normally expressed within the basal layer of stratified epithelium. Treatment with hydroxychloroquine can be effective. Plasma cell gingivostomatitis
Terms such as plasma cell gingivostomatitis, atypical gingivostomatitis and idiopathic gingivostomatitis are sometimes a synonym for plasma cell gingivitis, or specifically to refer to a severe form of plasma cell gingivitis. Other forms of stomatitis
Periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis and adenitis (PFAPA) syndrome—occurs in children. Uremic stomatitis—a rare form of stomatitis that occurs with kidney failure. Pyostomatitis vegetans
