ABSTRACT

Sjögren Syndrome is frequently treated by dermatologist, reumatologist, and ophthalmologist. This syndrome may be found as a primary or secondary presentation. Little care is taken on the oral manifestation, which may be as easy as dental caries, salivary gland enlargement or B cell lymphomas as a major complication. It is our objective to review minor and major complications showed in two of our patients.
