Resumo

Objective: The aim of this paper was to assess the surgical and nonsurgical treatment of Oral Leukoplakia (OL). Methods: The surgical, topical or systemic nonsurgical treatments or combination of both were reviewed. Several clinical trials have investigated the treatment of OL patients with the use of supplements. Results: The intervention should be considered in accordance with the result of the biopsy. Various methods of treatment are discussed with different protocols. There is still no consensus; however, several methods are used in the management of patients with OL. Both surgical and non-surgical methods demonstrated great effectiveness in accordance with the degree of dysplasia. Conclusions: At this time, randomized controlled trials for treatments of OL demonstrate no evidence of efficient treatment in preventing malignant transformation or recurrence. There is, indeed, the need of the establishment of a consensus on the treatment of OL to ensure approachable uniformity and comparable results.
