You may develop leukoplakia because something is irritating the inside of your mouth. People with leukoplakia may have an increased risk of oral cancer. Healthcare providers treat the condition with surgery that removes the patches. Symptoms and Causes What are the symptoms? Leukoplakia symptoms are patches inside your mouth that don’t go away. The patches may: Appear on your tongue, gums and the inside of your cheeks. Look flat or slightly raised. Be white, gray or white with tiny red dots. What causes leukoplakia? You can develop leukoplakia if something irritates tissue lining the inside of your mouth. For example, you may chew the inside of your cheeks or use dentures that don’t fit well. Leukoplakia may also happen when certain genes mutate, or change. (Genes tell cells what to do, such as how fast they should grow or when they should die off to make room for new cells.) In leukoplakia, genetic mutations make mouth tissue cells multiply faster than normal, creating patches. What are risk factors of leukoplakia? The following activities increase your chances of developing leukoplakia: Smoking or using chewing tobacco and smokeless tobacco. Regularly drinking substantial amounts of beverages containing alcohol. Having certain health conditions that affect your immune system, like Epstein-Barr virus or HIV. Diagnosis and Tests How is leukoplakia diagnosed? A healthcare provider will diagnose leukoplakia by examining your mouth and any unusual white patches. They’ll try to find what’s causing your symptoms. For example, if you use dentures, your provider may make sure your dentures aren’t rubbing against your gums or the inside of your cheeks. Your provider may do biopsies and send a sample of your tissue to medical pathologists to examine under a microscope. Should all suspected leukoplakia be biopsied? Yes, they should. A biopsy is the only way to determine if you have leukoplakia that may become oral cancer. Management and Treatment How is leukoplakia treated? Healthcare providers treat leukoplakia by removing the patches in your mouth. They may remove the patches with a scalpel. Other potential procedures include: Using a laser to remove the patches. Using light-activated cancer drugs (photodynamic therapy). Using cryotherapy, which is extreme cold that freezes and kills abnormal cells and removes the patches. Using an electrically heated needle or other instrument to remove the patches (electrocauterization). Prevention How can I prevent leukoplakia? Because experts aren’t always sure what causes leukoplakia, you may not be able to prevent it. However, leukoplakia is linked to tobacco and alcohol use. You may lower your risk by: Avoiding tobacco, including chewing tobacco and smokeless tobacco. Limiting your intake of beverages containing alcohol. According to American Cancer Society guidelines, people who choose to drink beverages containing alcohol should limit their intake to no more than two drinks per day for men and people assigned male at birth and one drink per day for women and people assigned female at birth.
