Not directly: The only manifestation of advanced liver disease visible in the oral mucosa is jaundice. Chronic liver disease impacts many systems of the body and therefore may have an indirect affect on the development of some oral lesions.

Cause is not known: Canker sores are the most common oral lesions. Individual ulcers typically last 1-2 weeks. The condition is idiopathic (cause is not known) recurrent aphthous ulcers is usually self-limiting. Try to keep adequate oral hygiene as possible. If concerned see your dentist after 10 days or visit today for laser immediate amelioration.
