Abstract

The oral potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) is a term used to describe the risk of malignancy being present in an oral lesion or condition either during the time of initial diagnosis or at a future date as per the World Health Organization (WHO). The prevalence of PMDs is reported to be 1–5% among the global population. The most common oral PMDs are leukoplakia, oral lichen planus (OLP), and oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF). The coexistence of all there PMDs is a rare presentation. Literature search showed a dearth of case report with all three PMDs. This is a case report of a patient with all three PMDs manifesting in his oral cavity.
