White harder raised plaques on the oral mucosa

Plaque-like white plaques: white or off-white homogeneous and hard plaques appear on the oral mucosa, with a compact texture, varying forms and areas of damage, mild bulging or unevenness. It is worth noting that there is no parallel relationship between the size of the damage and the possibility of canceration, and sometimes canceration has occurred even at the size of rice grains. The plaque-like lesions are often difficult to distinguish from the white spot of Candida albicans, but the former is harder at first sight. It is a clinical manifestation of oral mucosa leukoplakia. White leukoplakia refers to plaque-like lesions of white or off-white keratinizing lesions that only occur on the mucosa. Such plaques on the oral mucosa cannot be wiped off, and they cannot be listed clinically or histopathologically. Those who are classified into other diseases are a common non-communicable chronic disease. Mucosa can occur in all parts of the oral cavity, but the cheeks and tongue are the most. The prevalence of domestic census results in 1980 was 10.47% (including smoke). For a long time, the white plaques on the oral mucosa have been called "white plaques", which caused many white lesions to be mixed with white plaques, resulting in inappropriate results in epidemiology and treatment. In addition to white, the color of white spots can also appear as damage between red and white. It should be clear that leukoplakia is a clinical term seen by the naked eye. Histopathological changes should be consistent with the characteristics of precancerous lesions-abnormal epithelial hyperplasia, not simple epithelial hyperplasia.
