Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The repair process of the oral mucosa is similar to that of the skin,except that it involves a moist clot and not a dried scab from clot that forms on the skin surface.After an injury to the oral mucosa,the clot from blood products forms in the area,and the inflammatory response is triggered with its white blood cells.The epithelial cells at the periphery of the injury will lose their desmosomal junctions and migrate to form a new epithelial surface layer beneath the clot.At the same time,fibroblasts migrate to produce an immature connective tissue in the injured lamina propria deep to the clot and newly forming epithelial surface.
