Soft tissue calcifications in the oral cavity and maxillofacial region are most often detected as incidental findings on routine radiographic examination. But sometimes these soft tissue calcifications can be serious and may need treatment or follow-up of the underlying cause. Deposition of calcium salt as a result of chronic inflammation, necrosis or scarring in injured tissues despite normal phosphorous and calcium metabolism is called dystrophic calcification. A variety of systemic disorders can be associated with this type of calcification but, still, the pathophysiology is not clear. Here we present a case of dystrophic calcification in the floor of the mouth of an 18-year-old female patient associated with dysphagia which was excised by intraoral route.
