Yes, I have both. Confirmed by biopsy. Cleure toothpaste and Closys Ultra Sensitive mouthwash were heaven sent via ChatGPT search and Amazon. I was seen by a Teaching University Oral Medicine Specialist who said I may also have Sjögren's syndrome which may have led to the OLP. I will be starting on daily Dexamethasone rinses and oral anti fungal to prevent thrush today. Follow up in two months. I have also researched the Functional Medicine approach to OLP suggesting an elimination diet and multiple supplements. Pretty overwhelming.

@kathy333, may I ask what the supplements are that were recommended? I am seeing a OLP Washington University specialist this week. Hoping to find some relief. I have had OLP over 25 years. It flared up about 5 months ago and nothing is helping. I’m always interested in alternative supplements.
Thank you and best wishes!
