What is Glossitis?

Glossitis is an abnormality of the tongue that results from inflammation. Changes in appearance of the tongue may be a primary tongue disorder, or it may be a symptom of other disorders. Glossitis occurs when there is acute or chronic inflammation of the tongue. It causes the tonhue to swell and change color. Finger-like projections on the surface of the tongue are lost, causing tongue to appear smooth.

The causes of glossitis include:

  • Bacterial or Viral infections
  • Mechanical irritation or injury from burns, rough edges of teeth or dental appliances, or other trauma
  • Exposure to irritants such as tobacco, alcohol, hot foods, or spices
  • Allergic reaction to toothpaste, mouthwash, breath fresheners, dyes in candy, plastic in dentures or retainers, or certain blood-pressure medication
  • Disorders like iron deficiency anemia, pernicious anemia and other B-vitamin deficiencies, oral lichen planus, erythema multiform, aphthous ulcers, pemphigus wilgaris, syphilis, and others. Occasionally, glossitis can be inherited.

  • Pale, if caused by pernicious anemia
