Abstract
Trauma to the salivary excretory duct results in the oral mucocele which accounts to be most common salivary gland lesions of the benign variant. They appear fluctuant, nodular with colour variations ranging from normal mucosal colour to deep blue. They have the characteristic soft texture and have no specific sex predilection but occurs more commonly in children with lip biting habit. Here we present a case of recurrent mucocele of the lower lip, which was surgically excised after which habit intervention in the form of 4-week session of the Dunlop's psychotherapy was given.
