Abstract

Iron deficiency anaemia may be responsible for diverse oral mucosa changes due to the reduced oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells, but also due to changes in the oral mucosal structure and defence mechanisms. This study aims to report on three patients with iron deficiency anaemia who presented with distinct oral mucosal clinical features.
