Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) primarily affects the lungs but can also involve the oral mucosa, leading to ulcerations, nodules, and granulomas. Oral TB may present as a primary or secondary infection, often mimicking other conditions like malignancies or fungal infections. Diagnosis relies on histopathology, microbiological tests, and molecular techniques. Treatment follows standard anti-tubercular therapy, usually resolving lesions. Early detection is critical, especially in endemic regions and immunocompromised individuals. Dental professionals play a vital role in identifying and managing oral TB. Increased awareness and a multidisciplinary approach are essential for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes.
