Abstract

Systemic sclerosis is a connective tissue disorder with a variety of oral manifestations. This case reports we make an attempt to correlate oral and systemic findings that enable the clinician for a better diagnosis and to make a treatment plan. After obtaining the patient’s informed consent, relevant medical history and oral manifestations were recorded. The oral changes included restricted mouth opening and widening of periodontal ligament space radiographically and resorption of the mandible. Patients with systemic sclerosis often show wide range of oral manifestations, which is of major concern for the dentist.
