Gingivostomtitis not a synonym for herpetic gingivostomatitis

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

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]
