Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is one of the most poorly understood and unsatisfactorily treated disease. In this study, combined treatment modalities were tried based on the grading and staging of OSMF, and outcomes of treatment were noticed. In addition to this, visceral organ involvement evidenced by systemic fibrosis has been assessed to see, if OSMF is a part of systemic spectrum of disease.
