Purpose
The main aim of the study is to propose a treatment protocol based on scoring system.
Materials and Methods
One hundred patients were selected randomly having oral submucous fibrosis. They were classified into five groups based on clinical signs and symptoms, radiological and histopathological grading and severity of fibrosis. Patients of particular group were subjected to specific treatment for each group and followed for 2 years regularly.
Results
We found that almost all patients got symptomatic relief and they are able to take regular diet. Patient’s interincisal mouth opening increased significantly.
Conclusion
Based on this scoring and grouping we can give definite and prompt treatment to the patients with satisfactory results. This proposed scoring and staging can play major role in controlling and treating this widespread global disease. Thus, OSMF scoring index is very effective to decide the severity of disease and progress.
