“…In a prospective study from Basque, such lichenoid reactions were limited to old and corroded dental fillings [107]. Even patients with negative patch test results are likely to benefit from removing corroded restorations simply by omitting the mucosal irritation induced by them as a result of Koebner's phenomenon [108]. Food flavorings can also induce lichenoid reactions including cinnamon, cinnamonic aldehyde, and spearmint oil present in foods and dentifrices [109, 110].…”

Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory disorder that most often affects middle-aged adults. LP can involve the skin or mucous membranes including the oral, vulvovaginal, esophageal, laryngeal, and conjunctival mucosa. It has different variants based on the morphology of the lesions and the site of involvement. The literature suggests that certain presentations of the disease such as esophageal or ophthalmological involvement are underdiagnosed. The burden of the disease is higher in some variants including hypertrophic LP and erosive oral LP, which may have a more chronic pattern. LP can significantly affect the quality of life of patients as well. Drugs or contact allergens can cause lichenoid reactions as the main differential diagnosis of LP. LP is a T-cell mediated immunologic disease but the responsible antigen remains unidentified. In this paper, we review the history, epidemiology, and clinical subtypes of LP. We also review the histopathologic aspects of the disease, differential diagnoses, immunopathogenesis, and the clinical and genetic correlations.

“…The term OLP is now considered to represent those lesions where no trigger can be identified and are hence “idiopathic”, whereas all other lesions that are associated with drug intake, systemic disease (such as chronic liver disease), food or flavor allergies, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus are considered as lichenoid lesions. [8] Oral lichenoid lesions are similar to those of OLP. They can be distinguished from OLP lesions by their close relationship with resin or other metal restorations, and their tendency to be localized and asymmetrically distributed.…”

“…They can be distinguished from OLP lesions by their close relationship with resin or other metal restorations, and their tendency to be localized and asymmetrically distributed. [8] Drug induced LRs may resolve promptly when the offending drug is eliminated. [9] In contrast, OLP appears most commonly as a bilateral lesion.…”

“…So far, research has focused on immunological aspects in order to distinguish the two, and various studies have reported differences between them. [678] However, precise distinction between them still cannot be made using routine histopathological techniques. Histopathologically, the sub epithelial infiltration of chronic inflammatory cells in OLP is chiefly made up of lymphocyte without having neutrophil and eosinophils; in contrast, the sub epithelial infiltration of chronic inflammatory infiltrate of LR shows substantial numbers of plasma cells, eosinophils, and neutrophils.…”

Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a mucocutaneous disease with well-established clinical and histopathological features. It has a prevalence of approximately 1%. The etiopathogenesis is poorly understood. The annual malignant transformation is less than 0.5%. There are no effective means to either predict or to prevent such event. Clinically, OLP present as bilateral symmetrical lesion and hence lichen planus isolated to a single oral site other than the gingiva is very uncommon. On the other hand lichenoid reaction (LR) are the lesions which are similar clinically and histopathologically with OLP, but they are induced with some drug reaction and usually they do not show bilateral pattern like lichen planus. We reported a very uncommon case of unilateral lichen planus which was clinically diagnosed as LR, but in the absence of any cause-effective relationship biopsy was taken for histopathological examination Histopathologically, LR cannot be differentiated with OLP, so the final diagnosis was made on the immunohistochemical ground.

“…In addition, oral lichenoid reactions (OLRs) can contribute to the onset of OLP; OLRs comprise hypersensitivity reactions due to dental materials or some medications (Sumairi, Satish, & Rosnah, 2007). Some studies have suggested that amalgam restorations may be responsible for isolated erosive and reticular forms of OLR (Eisen, Carrozzo, Bagan Sebastian, & Thongprasom, 2005;Rogers 3rd & Bruce, 2004;Tornhill, Pemberton, Simmons, & Theaker, 2003). These lichenoid reactions do not exhibit migration and are present at the oral mucosa in contact with the restoration; the lesions show a degree of resolution when the restorations are removed (Sumairi et al, 2007).…”

Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease with unknown etiology. There are many clinical types of OLP. OLP cases are often asymptomatic; however, atrophic or erosive forms may cause sensitivity, burning, and discomfort. The best model of the OLP treatment modality is to evaluate the restorations that may lead to oral mucosa hypersensitivity as the first step. Local corticosteroid injection therapy may be preferred to eliminate the possible systemic side effects of systemic corticosteroid medication in patients with OLP. The aim of this case series is to evaluate treatment alternatives in OLP.
