RESUMO
Oral soft tissue lesions, which clinically appear red, are common. These lesions may present themselves in different clinical forms. They may be patchy, spotted, macular, papular, nodular, localized, diffuse, single, multiple and so on. Lesions that appear red may be considered primary when they appear when they appear as a result of local causes. They are secondary when their occurence is a result of systemic pathology. It is not uncommon that red lesions may be associated with pigmented or white lesions. In this chapter, commonly encountered red lesions of the oral mucosa are briefly discussed (AU)
