| Abstract: | ABSTRACT Background and Objective: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa. Psychosomatic factors and their association with dermatological disorders are well recognized, yet their importance in OLP is debate. OLP is a relatively common oral soft tissue disorder, still the exact cause is remained unknown. The purpose of this case–control study was to determine any possible association between stress and patients with different types of OLP, who attended the outpatient department of Oral Medicine and Radiology, KLES’s Institute of Dental Sciences, Belgaum, Karnataka (India). Materials and Methods: Total 80 subjects with different age and sex were included in the study into two groups i.e. Group A and Group B, where Group A is comprised of 40 subjects with clinically and histopathologically confirmed OLP and Group B is comprised of age and sex matched 40 normal healthy individuals. The measuring instrument of psychological state to assess the stress, Presumptive Stressful Life Events Scale (PSLES) by Gurmeet Sing, Dalbir Kaur, Harsharan Kaur, which allowed to know the degree of stress, was subjected to all 80 patients. The readings from both Group A and Group B subjects were tabulated for statistical analysis. Results: The mean score of PSLES of different types of OLP patients were significantly higher as compared to the control group. The mean score for PSLES in the study group were 321.4 and 183.3 in control group (p<0.001). We found that the stress levels, PSLES score in OLP group were significantly higher than in the control group. Interpretation and Conclusion: The present study revealed that the mean score of PSLES of different types of OLP patients were significantly higher as compared to the control group. Our findings concluded that OLP is closely related with stress. The evaluation of the PSLES score, seems a promising parameter for investigation of OLP. Thus besides traditional treatment of OLP, psychological support is also needed. Keywords: Oral lichen planus; Stress; Presumptive Stressful Life Events Scale.
