Abstract: Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is one of the most common dermatologic diseases occurring in the
mouth with an overall prevalence of 0.5 – 2.2%. Childhood OLP is rare and follows an atypical course. OLP
typically presents clinically as bilateral, symmetrical, flat- topped polygonal papules and plaques that may
be symptomatic or asymptomatic. The aim of this article is to present a brief review of OLP with a case report
of a 7 year old girl with OLP.
