🔹The term "Myiasis" is derived from the Greek words "muia" that means "fly" and "iasis" that means "disease".

🔸Oral Myiasis is a rare pathologic condition caused by parasitic infestation of dipterous larvae (maggots) in the oral cavity.

🟡 Predisposing Factors:

▪️Oral wounds and post maxillofacial fractures
▪️Poor oral hygiene
▪️Post tooth extraction
▪️ Immunocompromised patients
▪️ Mentally disabled patients
▪️Oral cancer and patients treated with chemotherapy or radiotherapy
▪️ Mouth breathers
▪️ Alcoholism and Smoking
▪️People with low socioeconomic status
▪️ Tropical & subtropical regions with usual climate conditions of heat and humidity

🟢 Treatment:

1️⃣ Topical application of asphyxiation causing drugs (ex: chloroform, ethyl chloride) to aid in mechanical removal of the larvae, followed by surgical wound debridement.
2️⃣ Medication with Ivermectin to eliminate any remaining larvae
3️⃣ Antibiotics should be prescribed to prevent secondary bacterial infections
4️⃣ Raising awareness about the importance of oral hygiene

🔶 The most common cause is gingivitis as a result of the accumulation of plaque and bacteria on the teeth and gingival margins, but there are other factors that may contribute to bleeding gums, including:

▪️Vitamin C or K deficiency
▪️ Diseases that cause platelets deficiency
▪️Use of anticoagulant medications
▪️Brushing teeth vigorously or using a rough toothbrush
▪️Using dental floss incorrectly ▪️Hormonal changes during pregnancy or adolescence
▪️Bleeding disorders or blood cancers ▪️Smoking, which in turn increases the risk of gum disease and interferes with the healing process
▪️The presence of sharp edges of teeth ▪️Dry mouth and lack of saliva, which makes the gums vulnerable to ulceration and bleeding after trauma
▪️Genetic factors such as hemophilia ▪️Use of inappropriate dental restorations or prosthesis
