Vincent's Angina, also known as Necrotizing Ulcerative Gingivitis, causes necrotic lesions in the interdental gums and tonsils, local bleeding, halitosis and pain, it can be caused by several factors including stress, smoking, local trauma, nutritional status, inflammatory diseases, immunodeficiency, and, mainly, oral hygiene. As it is a little known and studied pathology, it can be confused with a common throat infection. Furthermore, the lack of specification when requesting the laboratory test and the lack of professionals qualified to recognize the spindle-spiral association makes an accurate diagnosis difficult. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to report a case of Vincent's Angina with the aim of expanding knowledge about this pathology since its occurrence can go unnoticed.
