RESUMO
Nicotina stomatitis is the inflammation of the minor salivary glands present in the hard palate due to chronic smoking habit. The patients are mostly symptomless and present with multiple red discrete papules in the hard palate surrounded by grayish white areas. The histopathology of the lesion is discussed and cessation of the smoking habit treats the condition within 2-4 weeks.
