Leukoplakia is the most common potentially malignant lesion of the oral cavity and can be categorised according to its clinical appearance as homogeneous or nonhomogenous. Tobacco and areca nut use, either alone or in combination are the most common risk factors for oral leukoplakia, but some oral leukoplakias are idiopathic. Although it is considered a potentially malignant disorder the overall malignant progression of oral Leukoplakia is of the order of 5% and even more. Leukoplakia has evolved as a clinico-pathologic concept over many years, with the current clinical designation being accepted worldwide. In this article the basic pathology has been described along with clinical features and treatment.
