title: [Usefulness and value of allergical tests in stomatology].
abstract: A four year study was carried out on 52 patients with allergic changes of oral mucosa. The most frequent symptoms were oedema of mucosae, stomatitis and glossitis. In 35 patients, by use of allergic tests, we have found the cause of the disease, mostly in the group of nutritive, contact or inhalatory allergens. At 17 patients allergic tests were negative, but we have found the cause of changes at 8 patients. It was intestinal parasitosis or focalosis. At 9 patients all results of tests and clinical findings were normal, but they all had a good reaction on anti-allergic therapy with antihistamines. Collaboration between allergologist and stomatologist could improve our results on that field.
