Abstract

Background: - The association between diabetic mellitus and oral mucosal lesions, especially oral lichen planus has been the subject of much research but conclusion is controversial. The reported frequency of oral lichen planus in diabetes mellitus varies from 1.6% to 85%


Objective: - prevalence of oral mucosal lesions in non-oral habit diabetic patients and normal subjects


Materials And Method: - Cross sectional study involving 200 diabetic and 200 non diabetic control subjects without any oral habits. Detailed oral examination was performed based on international criteria.


Results: - A significantly greater proportion of subjects with DM(46%) had one or more OML in comparison to non- diabetics(30%) patients. Patients with DM showed significantly greater prevalence of oral lichen planus, geographical tongue, denture stomatitis and angular cheilitis (p<0.05).


Conclusions: - prevalence of OML was significantly higher in diabetic patients than non-diabetic
