Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is an autoimmune disorder that causes inflammatory changes and blistering of the subepithelial layer and is chronic and commonly related to the mucous membranes. It most commonly involves females in the fifth decade of life. In most of the cases, oral mucosa is involved. Dentists might be the first health professional to encounter and make a diagnosis of this rarely occurring disorder with mucocutaneous lesions. This article presents an MMP case report with clinical appearance, diagnosis, management, and follow-up.
