Abstract
Genetics play most important role in the determination of palmer dermatoglyphics. Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is due to consumption of areca nut. Environmental and Hereditary factors causing OSMF may lead to peculiarities in the dermatoglyphic patterns. Dermatoglyphics can identify the disease at the earliest, and preventive measures can be instituted for subjects having OSMF, leukoplakia etc.3
