What is the most likely diagnosis? Answer: D. Necrotizing sialometaplasia Rationale: Necrotizing sialometaplasia is a rapidly expanding ulcerative lesion that mostly occurs on the posterior area of the hard palate. Necrotizing sialometaplasia is usually benign and is often painless, and is usually self-limiting and resolves in about six to ten weeks. Trauma to the minor salivary glands located in the hard palate causes this condition. #NBDE2 #DentalStudent #DentalSchool #OralPath
