It complex several complications, including scarring, especially on conjunctival mucosa, can lead to visual loss. Case report. We report four patients (two men two women) MMP.

Background: Squamous cell carcinoma is the most prevalent kind of tumor buccal mucosa. For purpose planning surgery and radiotherapy for tumors tongue, floor mouth, oropharyx, imaging to locate size extent original essential. Therefore, it beneficial determine radiation field, ensure adequate margin excision, overall improve patient’s prognosis. Aims Objectives: The aim study was evaluate role ...

Introduction: The buccal mucosa, which contains non-keratinized epithelial cells lining the inner cheeks of the mouth, is a site for local and systemic delivery of medication. This region is highly vascularized and relatively immobile [1]. Buccal delivery allows for the active ingredients to exert rapid onset of action, bypassing liver first pass-metabolism, and avoiding pH fluctuations and deg...

Objective: Epidermoid cysts are rare lesions in the oral cavity. Intraoral epidermoid cysts are most commonly located in the floor of the mouth; they are less common in the lips and buccal mucosa. Cysts arising from the buccal mucosa are often difficult to distinguish from other lesions. We herein report a case of epidermoid cyst in the buccal mucosa diagnosed with imaging. Methods: A 65-year-o...

The oral mucosa is subjected to numerous local irritants throughout the life. This makes cavity one of most common sites for various benign, premalignant and malignant lesions. These lesions can cause variety symptoms, leading severe discomfort in daily Oral generally present form ulcer, swelling, discolouration or restricted mouth opening.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Saliva plays an important role in oral health; it is involved in lubrication of the oral mucosa, protection against infections, transport of nutrients and digestive enzymes, remineralization of teeth, as well as aiding in chewing, swallowing and speech. Reductions in the amount of saliva are known to increase the risk of oral diseases. This study investigated the fact...

Background: Oral submucous fibrosis is a chronic, fibrotic and crippling disease that affects the oral mucosa. It leads to progressive mainly involves buccal mucosa but other parts of cavity such as tongue palate can also be affected. There general consensus areca nut its constituents are responsible for pathogenesis disease. On histological examination biopsy taken from human mucosa, OSMF pres...

Sjogren’s syndrome (SS) is characterized by dry eyes and dry mouth, but there is a wide spectrum of additional symptoms due to dryness. The treatment of dry mouth remains largely unsatisfactory and the correlation of dry mouth symptoms with either minor salivary biopsies or salivary gland flow rates remains low. These currently used methods of diagnosis (and therapeutic outcome) measure predomi...
