Abstract
Clinical involvement of the oral mucosa is extremely common in pseudoxanthoma elasticum, particularly on the inside of the lower lip. Oral lesions may provide diagnostic clues for pseudoxanthoma elasticum when skin lesions are either atypical or absent. The frequency of periodontal involvement in this preliminary study without control subjects did not appear to be higher than that seen in the general population.
