Since there is little information available on the prevalence of oral lesions in the Middle East population generally, and no data on the Jordanian population, this study was undertaken to correct this deficiency in our knowledge. During this investigation 2175 consecutive asymptomatic dental patients attending the Initial Treatment Unit in the Faculty of Dentistry, Jordan University of Science and Technology were examined for the presence of oral lesions. A total of 30 different oral lesions and conditions were diagnosed. Fordyce's granules and tori were the most common conditions diagnosed in 49 per cent and 15.7 per cent of the subjects respectively. Larger scale studies are required on an unselected group of the Jordanian population to assess the overall significance of the findings.
由于总体上关于中东人群口腔病变患病率的信息很少，且没有关于约旦人群的数据，因此开展了本研究以弥补我们在这方面知识的不足。在此次调查中，对约旦科技大学牙科学院初诊部的2175名连续就诊的无症状牙科患者进行了口腔病变检查。共诊断出30种不同的口腔病变和病症。福代斯颗粒和隆起分别是在49%和15.7%的受试者中诊断出的最常见病症。需要对未经过筛选的约旦人群进行更大规模的研究，以评估这些发现的总体意义。
