Oral leukoplakia and proliferative verrucous leukoplakia

The term oral leukoplakia describes the occurrence of white lesions of the oral mucosa that have undetermined risk. It's likely that general dental practitioners will have patients with undiagnosed or diagnosed oral leukoplakia, so it's important that they recognize the condition and provide appropriate management. The current information regarding this disorder, as well as that of proliferative verrucous leukoplakia, which is a multifocal, widespread type of leukoplakia, was explored.
