Abstract

Lichen planus frequently develops in mucous membranes which manifest first in the oral cavity. The research investigates how clinical symptoms of oral lichen planus affect the quality of life linked to oral health (OHRQoL) for patients. The assessment included using the Oral Health Impact Profile 14(OHIP) standardized questionnaire to measure how pain together with discomfort and functional difficulties affect patients in their daily functioning and mental well-being. The evaluation showed symptomatic OLP patients report major OHRQoL deterioration because of persistent pain together with challenges in eating and appearance concerns. Research outcomes demonstrate why OLP patients need specialized treatment approaches to control symptoms which lead to enhanced life quality.
