This was a cross-sectional study performed on 1000 subjects in 2004 to determine the prevalence of lichenoid reactions in a population of Qazvin in which 1% of subjects were found with lichenoid reactions. The most prevalent lesion was found to be reticular form and the most predisposed area of oral cavity for this lesion was buccal mucosa. None of them had any form of cutaneous lichen planus.
