REACTIVE AND INFLAMMATORY WHITE LESIONS
Linea Alba (White Line)
linea alba is a horizontal streak on the buccal mucosa at the level of the occlusal plane extending from the commissure to the posterior teeth.
a very common finding and is most likely associated with pressure, frictional irritation, or sucking trauma from the facial surfaces of the teeth. "
Akilesh Ramasamy writes "The "part 1" discusses only the hereditary white lesions (as given in 10ed…and remember 9th ed has entirely different approach to this topic..)
In the 10 ed in complete contrast to 9 th ed the lesions are discussed under the following headings..
• Hereditary
• Inflammatory/traumatic
• Infectious white lesions
• Idiopathic “true”leuplakia.
• Bowen,s disease
• Lichenoid reaction
• Lupus erythematosis(discoid and systemic)
• Developmental white lesions like fordyce’s granules and gingival and palatal cyst of the born.
Any lesion that increases in thickness of epithielium and causes to appear white by increased distance to the vascular bed is a white lesion."

CONCLUSION
Organ transplants are mainly used to treat various life-threatening end-stage diseases. Technologies such as cold ischemia and preservation solutions allow for approximately 6 hours of “nonfunctioning” time for hearts and other organs, and 24 hours (or longer) for kidneys."
