Oral lesions seem to occur as specific lesions like lip swelling, cobblestone or tag lesions, or nonspecific lesions like ulcers. The present case report describes an orofacial Crohn's disease case, a rare presentation of Crohn's disease, managed with infliximab. Oral Crohn's disease refers to the spread of manifestations of Crohn's diseaseand could precede other signs. Physicians have to beaware of oral mucosal changes. The treatment options are based on the use of corticosteroids, immune-modulators and biologics. The best plan and therapy to control oral Crohn's disease requires early and precise diagnosis.
