Abstract

INTRODUCTION


The term focal epithelial hyperplasia was intro­duced in 1965 to describe certain multiple nodular elevations of the oral mucosa observed among American Indians in New Mexico, USA and Mato Grossa district in Brazil1. Since then it has been reported from several other countries including Iraq, Israel and South Africa2. We report two cases of this disorder from North Western Frontier Province of Pakistan.
