Abstract
Oral lichenoid reactions are one of the most common white lesions of the oral mucosa. Etiology is due to hypersensitivity reactions mainly caused by drugs, dental materials, and contact sensitivity to different substances. These lichenoid eruptions have similar appearance with lichen planus both clinically and histologically. Even though it is a common entity, appearance of such lesion in children is rarely reported. So, in this case report we are describing the lichenoid eruption in 6 years old boy who had a habitual history of areca chewing. Hence, the presence of etiology was duly the differentiating point from lichen planus in this patient.
