Abstract:
Leukoplakia is thickened, white patches inside the mouth that are mostly non-cancerous premalignant lesions. The occurrence rises with age, with middle-aged and older men experiencing it most commonly. Oral leukoplakia affects fewer than 1% of men under the age of 30. Although there are many potential causes for oral leukoplakia, smoking is the most frequent one. There are two basic categories for it: homogeneous and nonhomogenous forms. Although there may be surface abnormalities, homogenous leukoplakia typically has a homogeneous white area with a flat appearance and feel. Non-homogeneous leukoplakia has an unsteady look and an uneven, flat, nodular, or exophytic surface texture.
