Trench mouth

Vincent’s disease.


Infection of the mouth and gums marked by ulcers on the mucous membranes; it often occurs as a secondary infection in malnourished or debilitated people. Treatment depends on the cause, the primary illness, and the health of the person.


A condition that impacts the gums and the mucous membrane within the mouth, characterized by soreness and bleeding gums. The bacteria believed to cause this illness are present even in a healthy mouth, which suggests that the onset of this disease, often referred to as trench mouth, may be triggered by inadequate hygiene and nutritional deficiencies.
