Double Lip: A Case Report

Double lip is an infrequently anomaly of the lip. Double lip is caused by excessive areolar tissue and non-inflammatory labial mucous gland hyperplasia of the pars villosa. The excess tissue interferes with mastication, speech or esthetic concern to the patient. This paper reports a case of congenital double upper lip in a 61?year-old male patient with the clinical features. A 61?year-old male patient was referred to our clinic for main complaint of ineffective retentive and unstable removal upper total prosthesis. During the course of examination, we saw a fold on upper lip when the mouth opened and it was become more prominent on smiling. This rare case should be considered for removal denture stabilization especially in patients who use total or partial denture.
