 Abstract

Necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis is a relatively common acute lesion that involves the oral mucous membrane. It generally affects the younger age group and is characterized by destructive and ulcerative lesions of the oral mucous membrane. In severe cases, it may extend into the alveolar mucosa and perforate the skin of the cheek.
