No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Treatment of oral lichen planus is challenging. Diverse therapeutic modalities have been suggested, but a permanent cure is not yet available. In some OLP patients, topical corticosteroid alone is not sufficiently enough, thus it may require a supplementation to augment its effect. Micronutrients are gaining more attention as therapeutic modalities in immunologic disorders. Researchers are recommended to conduct further clinical studies are to assess the role of these elements in management of OLP (Gholizadeh \& Sheykhbahaei, 2020). Among the less visited micronutrients are zinc and vitamin D. This trial will assess their role in management of OLP.
