Gingivostomatitis (GS) or recurrent oral ulceration (ROU) is found in veterinary patients
with increasing frequency. Severe inflammation of the oral cavity is often seen in
feline patients. GS is also seen with increasing incidence in canine patients. Histopathologic
examination has been used to make a diagnosis by characterizing the reactive cells
in the oral mucosa. This has led to chronic unrelenting oral disease, which is called
by various descriptive names, including lymphoplasmacytic stomatitis (LPS), lymphocytic
plasmacytic gingivitis stomatitis (LPGS), plasmacytic stomatitis (PS), chronic ulcerative
paradental stomatitis (CUPS), plasma cell gingivitis-stomatitis-pharyngitis, chronic
ulcerative stomatitis, necrotizing stomatitis, feline chronic GS, and chronic gingivitis-stomatitis–faucitis.
The use of the term gingivostomatitis is recommended when describing the general inflammation of the gingiva and oral cavity
