Sažetak

Like any other branch of medicine, dermatology is a science and diagnosis results from detailed histora-taking, through examinationa and accurate observation, both of skin and mucosa.As on the free surface of the skin, many morphologically and etiologically different dermatoses also develop in the oral cavity, at times exclusively there
or sometimes the first lesions appeat in the oral mucosa. The oral mucous membranes have properties in common with the skin because both originate from the ectoderm. Reactability related both to skin and mucosa is the reason for transition of pathological process from skin to mucosa as wel as in the opposite direction. On the other hand, the oral mucosa differs histologically and functionally
from the skin. The keratinization of oral mucosa is largely absent or of a different kind. The connective tissue lyving bellow the epithelium is called the lamina propria. The submucosa is missing in some areas, for example, in the gingiva and the hard palate. Functionally oral mucosa has a grater capacity for regeneration of the basal layer, with its high mitotic index, and the constant wetting of its surface with saliva, which plays an important part in maintaining the health of the mucosa. Skin diseases which occur relatively frequently in the region of the lips and oral cavity include genodermatosis,
viral diseases, bacterial infections, fungal diseases, bullous dermatises, collagenoses allergic reactions , nevi, benign and malignant tumors.
