Five years ago, I was diagnosed from a biopsy with oral lichen planus. I also was diagnosed with Rhuematoid Arthritis two years later.  I tried almost everything there is for my gums and nothing works.  Would like to see if anyone is having luck with something I haven't tried.  And does anyone else have an auto immune problem in addition to the OLP?

    I'm curious, has anyone tried turmeric, pill form or even created a mouthwash of some sort?  I hear good things about it and may experiment with it.

      Hi Marie, I have a friend who doe take turmeric in pill form. She doesn't have LP but has Sjogrens and Fibro. I'm not sure what she's taking it for but I know she has taken it for quite a while and has alot of success with it. Good luck to you and let us know if it helps you. God bless you.
