Leukoplakia | Leukokeratosis | idiopathic white patch....Clinical features & Management

#easydent #leukoplakia Leukoplakia is a condition that causes thick, plaque-like white patches on the tongue, gums, and lining of the mouth. Mouth irritants and irritating activities, such as smoking, often cause leukoplakia. Typically, cases of white patches in the mouth are harmless and symptoms resolve on their own. However, if the condition is leukoplakia, it can be associated with oral cancer. Leukoplakia is different from other causes of white patches such as thrush or lichen planus because it can eventually develop into oral cancer. Within 15 years, about 3% to 17.5% of people with leukoplakia will develop squamous cell carcinoma, a common type of skin cancer. The likelihood of developing cancer from leukoplakia depends on the size, shape, and appearance of abnormal cells. Notes for leukoplakia:- https://easydentnotes.blogspot.com/20...
