Abstract:
Oral ulceration is a common oral mucosal disorder arising from a range of aetiologies but, apart from being associated with discomfort or pain, rarely results in complications apart from occasional scarring. This paper reports two patients with a history of minor aphthae who developed ulceration with increasingly severe pain, related to the onset of osteitis, and who then developed sequestra.
