Abstract
Introduction: It is well established that several inflammatory conditions exist together and at an increased incidence in patients with psoriasis. Psoriasis is a relatively common chronic immune mediated inflammatory disease, commonly involving the skin, which usually present as cutaneous erythematous papules and plaques covered by whitish scales. However, only few authors have reported oral involvement in this group of patients. Case Report: The present case report discusses the clinical presentation of periodontal findings and the importance of diagnosing the oral condition in any form of mucocutaneous disorders. Conclusion: An accurate diagnosis is dependent on a thorough clinical examination, biopsy of the oral lesions and a history of cutaneous psoriasis.
