International Journal of Applied Dental Sciences · 2018 · Vol. 4(3) · pp. 69–71
Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematous (SLE), one of the rare dermatoses shows desquamative lesions as the oral manifestation Periodontal disease and SLE are both multifactorial conditions that share several pathogenic characteristics. The similar mechanisms of tissue destruction for periodontitis and other autoimmune diseases have stimulated the study of potential associations between these conditions. Hence, in the present study we present a case of a 70-year-old female suffering from SLE with oral manifestations.
