Abstrakt		Self-inflicted or factitious injuries of the oral mucosa are not rare and may appear in various forms often mimicking other oral lesions. Detailed medical history and clinical examination will usually reveal the underlying cause of the injury. However, if the patient is not aware of the bad habit, it will take longer for the dentist to figure out the underlying cause. Treatment relies on the elimination of the bad habit and lesions could be easily treated with topical corticosteroids in orabase. However, no therapy is successful unless patient does not stop the factitious habit. This article emphasizes that certain lesions of the oral mucosa might result from the self-inflicted habits of which patient is sometimes unaware of.
