Abstract

Oral Sub Mucous Fibrosis (OSMF) is a crippling disease that impedes the normal functions of the oral cavity. It is a slowly progressive disease characterized by epithelial atrophy, abnormal accumulation of collagen fibers in the sub-epithelial tissues. It predominantly affects people of South-East Asian origin where chewing of areca nut and its commercial preparations is high. The prevalence in India has been reported as being from 0.2 to 0.5 per cent.
