EP145: Triggers of Oral Lichen Planus and Plate Removal after Jaw Surgery

In this episode I break down to interesting topics. The first is discussing triggers with oral lichen planus. Patience with biopsy proven oral lichen planus we’re given a questionnaire in this Prospect of study to see what the triggers were and if avoidance of the triggers was helpful for these patients. A list of the typical and most common triggers is also given for your review. I also discuss the odds and likelihood and reasons for plate removal with jaw surgery. This discussion will help you have a better feel for when patients will have plates removed and if they are likely to have an improvement in signs and symptoms with removal of those plates.
