Eosinophile leukocytes are found in most chronic inflammations of the pulp and gingiva, and also quite frequently in acute inflammations.
The eosinophile cells migrate from the blood vessels into the tissues probably as a result of some chemotactic influence.
It is possible, due to repeated bleedings and tissue decomposition in an inflammatory process of gingiva and pulp, that allergic conditions develop. This might account for the frequent accumulation of the eosinophile leukocytes.
