Abstract

BACKGROUND Psoriasis is a common cutaneous disease; however, information about psoriasis-related oral mucosal lesions is scarce in the literature. CASE DESCRIPTION We report a case of a 73-year-old male patient with cutaneous and oral palatal alterations. An incisional biopsy of these lesions revealed psoriasis. CONCLUSION The current case highlights the importance of a systematic examination of the oral cavity in psoriasis patients for the appropriate diagnosis and management on the control of these lesions.

期刊介绍： The ultimate aim of Gerodontology is to improve the quality of life and oral health of older people. The boundaries of most conventional dental specialties must be repeatedly crossed to provide optimal dental care for older people. In addition, management of other health problems impacts on dental care and clinicians need knowledge in these numerous overlapping areas. Bringing together these diverse topics within one journal serves clinicians who are seeking to read and to publish papers across a broad spectrum of specialties. This journal provides the juxtaposition of papers from traditional specialties but which share this patient-centred interest, providing a synergy that serves progress in the subject of gerodontology.
