A 39 year old male presented with white patches in the oral cavity. Lesions are noted diffusely and bilaterally on the hard and soft palate, buccal mucosa, dorsum of the tongue, and some areas of the gingiva. The lesions are nontender, thickened, firm, rough and will not rub off. All the white patches are fixed to the surface mucosa, but they are fixed to underlying structures only on the hard palate and gingiva. Present since long in the same location, and have not changed. Diagnosis? Treatment option?
