Detailed description

Background: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting the mucous membranes, believed to be an immune-mediated condition. Its persisting nature can lead to extended discomfort for those affected. The primary symptoms are pain and a burning sensation, with a potential risk of malignancy if not properly managed, necessitating lifelong clinical monitoring. Presently, OLP is considered a significant challenge due to the absence of a definitive cure. Patients \& patients: Thirty patients with oral lichen planus were divided into three groups, 10 patients each: Group A: ten patients with OLP were received topical triamcinolone acetonide. Group B: ten patients with OLP were received topical curcumin. Group C: ten patients with oral lichen planus were received topical triamcinolone acetonide combiend with topical curcumin. For six weeks. Each patient was examined at baseline,1 and 3months of therapy. Pain was scored using the visual analogue scale. Salivary level of interleukin 1 were estimated at baseline,1and 3 months' evaluation periods.
