Abstract

The present work analyses various life quality aspects of 79 patients with oral lichen planus, who were examined in the Žalgiris Clinic of Vilnius University Hospital in the period 2009-2012. Oral lichen planus had different forms of the disease and individual experience, which impacted quality of life. The erosive-ulcerative form of the disease as compared to reticular form had more detrimental influence on psychological, social or physical comfort of patients. A high percentage of patients (48,3% erosive-ulcerative form and 44,5% reticular form) were concerned about their future with oral lichen planus.
