title: Granulomatous disorders of the oral mucosa.
abstract: A wide variety of granulomatous disorders can involve the orofacial tissues. As in other sites, appropriate clinicopathologic correlations are needed to reach a definitive diagnosis. The clinical and pathologic features of some of the more common oral granulomatous disorders are considered, including idiopathic conditions, foreign body lesions, and infectious lesions.
