“…Total 4.46% patients were taking alcohol while tobacco chewing was seen in 11.38% patients which is comparable to Suliman et al, [13] that is 4.3% and 12.7% respectively. In present study smoking melanosis was seen in 4 (1.98%) patients which is comparable to Mohammad et al [14] study where pigmentation was seen in 3(2.4%) patients and Kamble et al [15] where it was seen in 2.7% patients.…”

Background Oral mucosa is one of the first barriers to the outside world which encounters various antigens, microorganisms and physical agents and it is in direct continuity with the skin externally and with the mucosa of oropharynx and nasopharynx internally. Objectives The objective of our study was to study the prevalence of oral mucosal lesion, its association with various dermatoses and quality of life in patients with oral mucosal lesions attending outpatient department of dermatology at a tertiary care health centre. Methods This study was an observational, purposive type of study conducted in Department of Dermatology at a tertiary health care centre. All the patients with oral mucosal lesion were included with full history and detailed examination noted in a prestructured proforma. Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) and Children’s Life Quality Index (CDLQI) both were used to assess quality of life. Results: Among 202 (prevalence-0.8%) patients, maximum numbers of patients 53 (26.23 %) belonged to age group 31-40 years followed by 49(24.25 %) patients with age group of 21-30 years. Maximum numbers of patients were female 108 (53.46 %). Among oral ulcers recurrent aphthous stomatitis was the commonest finding seen in 56 (27.72%). Among cutaneous conditions associated with oral lesions oral lichen planus 50(24.75%) was the most common condition followed by pemphigus in 15(7.42%) patients. Out of 195 patients, maximum 86 (44.10%) patients were categorised as a moderately affected DLQI group. Conclusion: Oral ulcers were the most common finding seen in our study. There were a significant number of patients of cutaneous conditions associated with oral lesions seen.

“…In our study among oral ulcers, recurrent aphthous stomatitis 56 (27.72%) was the most common finding which is similar to Byakodi et al [10] 31.3% and Mohammad et al [14] 22.4% while in Kamble et al [15] study it was seen in 3.57% patients. Our study was conducted in area which is the hub of tobacco production.…”

“…However, it should be pointed out, that cited authors described the India population from different geographical regions, cultures and habits. In turn, a higher prevalence of OLP lesions, at the level of 2.3%, 2.5%, 3.5% and 5.6%, was observed by authors from Slovenia [38], Italy [39], Northern Finland [40] and from Egypt [4], respectively. In the article by Oivio et al [40], the birth cohort study of 1961 participants, oral lichenoid diseases were described as more frequent in men.…”

(1) Background: Oral mucosa lesions (OMLs) are diagnosed worldwide in any population, age or gender, but in varied prevalence. OMLs can be found in each site of the oral mucosa; for some of them, it is characteristic to have a bilateral/symmetrical or unilateral/nonsymmetrical mucosal manifestation. The knowledge about its prevalence in varied populations can be useful from a clinical point of view. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of OMLs in patients attending outpatient dental clinic; (2) Retrospective analysis of 2747 patients’ oral cavity medical charts, who referred to oral pathology outpatient clinic. The type of diagnosed oral lesion, sex and age were evaluated. p ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant; (3) Results: In this study, the overall prevalence of oral mucosal lesions was found to be higher in older than younger patients. In our study, the age median was the highest in patients with xerostomia, burning mouth syndrome, angular cheilitis and oral candidiasis. The youngest median age was observed in patients with aphthae, mucocele and gingival enlargement. The higher OMLs frequency was related with the female gender. (4) It is important for clinicians to be familiar not only with distinctive features, which sometimes may not be clear, but also with linking the occurrence of OMLs with the gender and age.

The problems of diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases of the oral mucosa and the red lip border remain one of the most relevant in modern dentistry. The review analyzes clinical and epidemiological studies of pathological conditions on the oral and lip mucosa. The role of risk factors in the occurrence of certain nosological groups of diseases of the mouth and lips is indicated according to the literature. The relationship between age-related regenerative features of the oral mucosa, as well as the presence of somatic diseases and the development of oral pathology is shown. The influence of local risk factors on the occurrence of lesions on the mucous membrane of the mouth and lips is described, among which injuries with dentures and poor oral hygiene come to the fore. The significance of social and behavioral determinants, such as smoking and alcohol consumption, in the occurrence of precancerous processes on the mucous membrane of the mouth and lips is reflected. Changes in the structure of the mucous membrane of the mouth and lips depending on the age and sex characteristics of patients are highlighted. In young people, glossitis (folded tongue, geographic tongue) and cheilitis (chronic lip cracks, meteorological cheilitis) occupied the leading positions among oral lesions. A high proportion of lesions in middle-aged people accounted for precancerous (lichen planus, leukoplakia) and neurogenic (glossalgia) processes. Prosthetic stomatitis and dermatosis (erythema multiforme exudative, lupus erythematosus, lichen planus) were more often noted in elderly, senile patients and centenarians. The importance of studying the incidence structure of the oral mucosa and lips in each age and sex group is emphasized in order to identify and assess the impact of potential risk factors, as well as to develop and improve regional preventive programs for maintaining dental health.
