What is a oral medicine specialist?
An oral medicine specialist manages non-surgical disease of the mouth — autoimmune conditions like lichen planus and pemphigus, oral manifestations of systemic disease, salivary gland disorders, and the dental care of medically complex patients (cancer survivors, transplant patients, severely immunocompromised patients).
Training
After dental school, an oral medicine specialist completes a 2- to 3-year accredited residency, often including a Master's degree. The specialty was officially recognized by the ADA in 2020. Board certification is through the American Board of Oral Medicine.
When to see one
- Persistent mouth ulcers that don't heal in 2 weeks
- White or red patches in the mouth
- Burning mouth syndrome
- Dry mouth severe enough to affect function
- Dental management before, during, or after cancer treatment
Frequently asked
Questions about oral medicine specialists
How is oral medicine different from oral pathology?
Oral medicine specialists see patients clinically and manage long-term disease. Oral pathologists diagnose disease from biopsy specimens — they're largely lab-based.
