“…Thus, psoriasis affecting the lips behaves similarly to cutaneous lesions [18]. It may present with diffuse erythema, fissuring, silvery scales and desquamation which start from the commissures and spread to involve both lips [20,21,22]. Occasional bleeding, serous exudate, as well as itching and discomfort aggravated by mastication and lip movements, may also be present [22].…”

Although cutaneous psoriasis is common, the existence of its manifestations in the oral cavity has been questioned. The definitive diagnosis of oral psoriasis can be challenging due to the variability of presentations, and overlapping clinical and histological features with a number of other conditions as well as the lack of consensus. We review oral psoriasis, noting its variable clinical appearance, delineate the differential diagnosis, and discuss management strategies.

“…The disease may involve skin as well as joints and very rarely also mucous membranes. Psoriasis of the lips is an unusual disease location, which is particularly disturbing from the patients' perspective and may be considered a stigma [2,3].

Even though psoriasis is a common skin disorder, reports of it involving the oral cavity are exceedingly rare, with less than 100 publications in the literature. Biopsy-proven oral psoriasis has been reported in the oral medical literature, but the commonest oral mucosal findings in most studies are associated non-specific features including fissured and geographic tongue. Case series on this entity have not provided any definitive data to support its existence. From the evidence available to date, it is still unclear if oral psoriasis is a distinct entity or if, indeed, it exists.
