Some cases of gingivostomatitis may be subclinical, which means that the symptoms are not severe, or easy to identify and diagnose.
In other cases, some individuals may go through a period of feeling feverish and having general malaise before the sores develop.
Swollen gums and sores in the mouth make eating and drinking uncomfortable. This can cause children to refuse food and drinks.
One study found that 89 percent of children with gingivostomatitis drank less than usual. To prevent dehydration and poor nutrition, adults should monitor children’s consumption and ensure they are getting enough fluids.
Adopting a diet consisting of soft foods and avoiding citrus or carbonated beverages can help. In some cases, a person can apply numbing medication to provide relief at mealtimes.
In children
Gingivostomatitis is a common infection in children, with most cases developing between the ages of 6 months and 5 years old.
According to some research, the most common time to develop a gingivostomatitis infection is when a child is between 2 and 3 years old.
Causes
Poor oral hygiene can be a cause of gingivostomatitis.
The causes of gingivostomatitis include:
infection with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)
infection with coxsackievirus
poor brushing and flossing habits
HSV-1 is the most common cause of gingivostomatitis, accounting for about 90 percent of cases in children
