Acute streptococcal gingivitis is an acute inflammation of the oral mucosa and also may be seen with the other oral diseases as aggressive periodontitis that is characterized by a considerable attachment loss over a relatively short period of time. Streptococcal infections of gingiva are seen rarely; also the origin of this gingival inflammation is occasionally different from that of routine plaque-associated gingivitis. The clinical features and treatment methods of these diseases are already reported in previous literatures. This case report describes a patient who presented with severe gingival inflammation and attachment loss that was diagnosed as an acute streptococcal infection associated with aggressive periodontitis. In this study a supportive treatment option was demonstrated based on these data and antacid treatment as adjunctive to the recommended treatment modalities was used for streptococcal gingivitis.
急性链球菌性牙龈炎是口腔黏膜的一种急性炎症，在其他口腔疾病如侵袭性牙周炎中也可能出现，侵袭性牙周炎的特征是在相对较短的时间内有大量附着丧失。牙龈的链球菌感染很少见；这种牙龈炎症的起源偶尔也与常规菌斑相关性牙龈炎不同。这些疾病的临床特征和治疗方法已在以往文献中报道。本病例报告描述了一名出现严重牙龈炎症和附着丧失的患者，该患者被诊断为与侵袭性牙周炎相关的急性链球菌感染。在本研究中，基于这些数据展示了一种支持性治疗方案，并且将抗酸治疗作为推荐治疗方式的辅助手段用于链球菌性牙龈炎。
