SLIDE QUESTION
Jul 11, 2000

http://www.hivdent.org/slides/hl_mild_to_moderate3.htm

Is the grayish area on the bottom of the tongue on the VERY left on the picture Hairy Leukoplakia? Or just a normal grayish coloration of the bottom of the tongue?

Response from Dr. Reznik

The greyish area you mention in this question is a representation of Oral Hairy Leukoplakia.

Take care,

DR
