Sores in the mouth can be a sign of Behcet's syndrome, which also cause injury to the eyes and genitals.
A white open wounds that do not cause pain (cangker) and arise in the mouth or on lips within 1-13 weeks after patients undergo oral sex (sexual intercourse by mouth), could be the early stages of syphilis.
These sores usually disappears by itself after a few weeks.
1-4 months later, some white spots (spots of mucus, a sign-up of untreated syphilis) can also be formed on the lips or inside the mouth.
Open wound (cangker) or slimy spots is highly contagious, can even be transmitted through kissing.
Floor of the mouth is a place where often the discovery of cancer, especially in alcohol drinkers and smokers middle age and old age.
Various types of cysts may be formed on the floor of the mouth. These cysts often must be surgically removed because they interfere with the patient.
Large fluid-filled blisters that can arise in any part of the mouth.
Usually the result of injury or associated with a disease (eg pemfigus).
Some viral illnesses (such as German measles) can also cause a temporary aberration in the cheeks, especially in children.

In people with AIDS, purplish patches caused by Kaposi's sarcoma can arise in the palate.
PROBLEMS IN salivary gland

Dry mouth can be caused by:
- Too little to drink
- Breathing through the mouth
- Taking certain drugs
- A disease of the salivary keenjar (eg Sjögren's syndrome)
- Old age.
A channel that drains the saliva could be blocked by the deposition of calcium (calcium stones).
These blockages cause the saliva can not be streamed and salivary gland swelling.
Swelling of the salivary glands can also become infected with bacteria.
If the swelling gets worse just before the meal arrives, or if patients eat pickles, it is definitely the cause is blockage of the channel.
Sour taste of pickles stimulate saliva drainage, but because the channel is blocked, the saliva can not be streamed, so the swelling worse.
Sometimes a dentist can push the stone by pressing both sides of the channel.
If not successful, a similar tool fine wire can be used to pull the stone out.
Or it could be done surgery to remove the stone.
An injury to the lower lip (such as biting) can injure the small salivary glands and clog the drainage of saliva.
As a result, the gland will swell and form a small bump and the soft bluish (mukokel).
After several weeks, the lump usually disappears by itself, or if you disturb or frequent relapse, can be surgically removed teeth.
Mumps (mumps, bacterial infections) and other diseases can cause swelling of the major salivary glands.
Swelling can also be caused by salivary gland tumors either benign or malignant (usually more dense than the swelling caused by infection).
If the tumor is malignant, the gland will be felt hard as a rock.
Salivary gland

In geographic tongue, some areas appear white tongue and other areas appear red and slippery.
Areas that experienced a change colors seem to move for a few years or for life pendeirta.
