A member asked:
Is leuplakia curable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually: Leukoplakia by definition is a white patch inside the mouth. It could be any number of things from candidiasis to frictional keratosis (rubbing basically). I would have a dentist check it asap just to be sure. Especially if you are a tobacco user. Anything white in the mouth of a tobacco user must be checked for cancer.
