Tuberculosis is chronic infectious disease and major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. It can affect any part of body, including oral cavity. Oral lesions of tuberculosis, though uncommon, have been observed in both primary and secondary stages of disease. This article presents case of tuberculosis in oral mucosa and mandible in 45 years old female. Involvement of oral cavity in TB is quite rare. Oral lesions seem to occur as chronic ulcers, nodular or granular areas. Most extra-pulmonary lesions represent secondary infections of primary lung infectious focus; therefore, early and accurate diagnosis is required for planning of best treatment and strategies to control disease.

Tubercular osteomyelitis of the maxilla & mandible was earlier considered as a rare disease but the incidence is on the rise with isolated presentation in the jaws. The rarity of the disease in the jaws usually has clinical doubt especially when the positive history of systemic infection was present. Early diagnosis of tubercular osteomyelitis will certainly reduce the morbidity of disease condition. Hereby we report two cases of tubercular osteomyelitis of maxilla & mandible. Case 1: A male patient of 19 year old of tubercular osteomyelitis was referred for medical management & 2 nd male patient of 58 year old who presented with a non-healing socket since 1 month. He was treated with surgical intervention & anti-tubercular drugs.
