Means to detect pemphigus vulgaris at an early stage are described. Its grave evolution in absence of treatment makes an early diagnosis imperative. The first signs are frequently localized in the oral mucosa and sometimes the disease remains confined to this mucosa only. Efficient and early therapy may favourably influence the course of disease, and the dentist is in a prime position to detect the characteristic lesions.
