Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a chronic, irreversible disease. The etiology of OSF has been linked to several risk factors, including local factors, systemic factors, and immunological disorders. We report a 22-year-young male patient case of Oral submucous fibrosis, referred to the Maxillofacial Surgery Department of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences, Zahedan, Iran. Treatment for oral submucous fibrosis is based on the disease's clinical involvement and rate of advancement. Even though there are numerous innovative therapeutic techniques for this illness, none of them can cure it. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve the quality of life of a person. Some of the findings of this study are different from reference texts and other studies.
