Abstract
Developmental anomalies and variants of normal oral mucosa may give rise to concerns for patients and they may seek treatment. A thorough knowledge of such lesions by clinicians can avert the need for further investigations and be reassuring for the patient. Notwithstanding, lesions may occasionally require biopsy due to a concerning appearance or because the lesion is symptomatic or interfering with function. This chapter deals with a few developmental oral mucosal lesions and their variants.
