Abstract
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a diverse group of disorders that have as a common feature blister for-mation with tissue occuring at variable depths in the skin and/or mucosa. This article reports two cases of EB and review oral- clinical findings of the EB types and approaches for managing the oral- clin-ical manifestations. While systemic treatment remains primarily palliative, it is possible to prevent destruction and subsequent loss of the dentition through appropriate interventions and dental therapy.
