Abstract

Black hairy tongue (Lingua villosa nigra) is a benign and asymptomatic clinical condition characterized by marked accumulation of keratin on the filiform papillae. It is rare in childhood. Although the etiology of the disease is not clear, various drugs, infections and poor oral hygiene are considered responsible. Here, we present a case of black hairy tongue which is thought to be due to systemic antibiotic use and candida infection in a nine year old male patient.

Özet

Siyah kıllı dil (lingua villosa nigra), filiform papilla üzerinde belirgin keratin birikimi ile karakterize, benign ve asemptomatik bir klinik durumdur. Çocukluk çağında ender görülür. Hastalığın etiyolojisi net olmamakla birlikte çeşitli ilaçlar, enfeksiyonlar ve kötü ağız hijyeni sorumlu tutulmaktadır. Burada, dokuz yaşında bir erkek hastada sistemik antibiyotik kullanımına ve kandida enfeksiyonuna bağlı geliştiği düşünülen siyah kıllı dil olgusu sunulmaktadır.
