[Oral pathology of pscyhosomatic origin. Review of the literature].
Emotional stress is one of the etiologic or anyway predisposing factors involved in a lot of oral pathologies. In fact, relations between stress effects and frequent diseases such as gastric ulcer or ulcerous colitis are today wellknown by everyone. Theories about a relation between this kind of etiology and tumours are only reported by some Authors and are at the level of hypotheses. Mouth is very weak in these situations, owing to its great interest as primary erogenous zone, and for this reason we find frequently oral pathologies in relation with psychosomatic medicine. In this report we tried to give a good help to the study of these diseases and to find an easy classification to use (really it is an hard work to do due to the variety of this numerous illnesses).
