Hi Colleen,

Thank you. I was able to find a specialist who specializes in Oral Lichen Planus at Johns Hopkins. I have an appointment later this month. I wish it was tomorrow.

Thanks again for reaching out to me.

If you hear of a study I'm your gal!

Respectfully,
Melanie

I had a phone consult with an oral LP specialist dentist that I heard speak on an oral LP conference call sponsored by Texas A&M University. I had already been diagnosed with oral LP (along with LP on most of my body.). My husband send photos to this Dr and he gave me some tips on what to do. Unfortunately oral LP is a tough nut to crack and what works for one person may not work for others and for most of us it is a chronic, lifelong disease. I find a diet with no sugar, salt, chocolate, any crunchy or sharp foods has helped but I always have some sores at all times. Best of luck to you.

Hi Melanie, I am also looking for a lichen planus specialist in the DC/Baltimore area. Would you mind sharing who did you find? When I look through the specialists at JHU I could not find anybody who mentions it in their profile.
