Abstract

The abuse of alcohol is on the rise and has been found to be associated with numerous systemic diseases. In
addition to this, alcohol has been implicated in adversely affecting the oral cavity and can cause salivary gland
diseases, oral cancer, potentially malignant disorders of the oral cavity, dental caries, erosion of teeth, periodontitis
and oral mucosal alterations. This review focuses on the oral implications of chronic and excessive alcohol
consumption.
