Some studies found a possible relationship between geographic tongue, transient lingual papillitis and atopic diseases. To investigate the frequency of geographic tongue and fungiform papillary glossitis in patients with atopic diseases, and its correlation with serum IgE levels and skin test results. The sample was comprised of participants with atopic diseases paired with participants who received negative puncture skin tests. All were submitted to stomatological and medical evaluations, prick test and oral cytopathological. The female sex was more numerous in both groups. Mean age was 21 years.
