title: The clinical manifestations and treatment of oral lichen planus.
abstract: The progress in research on OLP and other autoimmune diseases has been significant. Coupled with a growing recognition of the clinical features and treatment options by dentists and physicians and fueled by the advances in immunosuppressive therapies, research will undoubtedly provide new insights into this complex disorder. It is likely that what is learned will enhance the understanding not only of OLP but also of many other mucocutaneous diseases.
