Epidermal Ridge Patterns of Fingers in the Patients with Oral Premalignant Conditions-A Dermatoglypic Study
The frequency of the whorled pattern was higher in subjects with OSMF as compared to OL. The arch pattern was comparatively lesser in subjects with OL than OSMF subjects. We conclude that dermatoglyphics can be used as a potential marker to identify the subjects with risk for potentially malignant oral disorders.
