Abstract

Abstract

Oral leukoplakia is a disorder with the potential to become malignant, impacting the oral mucosa. It is characterized as "essentially an oral mucosal white lesion that cannot be classified as any other identifiable lesion." This condition manifests as a white patch or plaque within the oral cavity. Among the various types of leukoplakia, the non-homogenous variant known as speckled leukoplakia, though rare, is not uncommon and carries a higher risk of turning malignant. Here, we report a case of homogeneous and speckled leukoplakia in a Single

Patient.
