Abstract
The characteristics and incidence of aphthous diseases and the role of general and local predisposing factors were investigated in a sample of 110 patients of both sexes with oral recidivous habitual aphthas. The results obtained show that gastrointestinal and psychogenic factors were most frequently found among general factors, while the predominant local factor was dentobacterial plaque in patients of both sexes. The size and localization of efflorescences differed with regard to age and sex, while langth of remission period differed only with regard to age.
