Covid-19 caused by Sars-nCoV-2 virus, typically presents with varied findings ranging from cough, breathlessness, cold to diarrhoea, loss of taste and smell. Transmission of the virus takes place mainly through direct contact or droplet spread. Though the nasopharynx and the oro pharynx is close to the oral cavity, only four reports of Covid-19 associated oral lesions have been reported.
