Abstract:
Clinical data of granulomatosa cheilitis of 33 cases were analysed.Odontogenic infectious foci were found in each patient.Elimination of odontogenic infectious foci was followed by regression or disappearance of the swellings in all the 33 cases,suggesting a close relationship between granulomatous cheilitis and odontogenic infectious foci.Elimination of odontogenic infectious foci can be an important measure for the treatment of granulomatous cheilitis.
