Abstract

Oral changes with psychosomatic etiology are still an insufficiently confirmed and investigated subgroup of psychosomatic diseases which have long been known in medicine. In their daily practice dentists frequently come across patients showing signs of stress and their oral manifestations in form of recurrent oral stomatitis, oral lichen planus and temporomandibular disorders. Recognition of such psychological or emotional disturbance benefits both the patient and clinician. Hence psychological management should be taken into consideration when treating patients with these psychosomatic disorders.
