Wegener's granulomatosis will classically present as a triad of respiratory, kidney, and vascular involvement. The disease may run a course of rapidly progressive or mild and indolent and escape diagnosis for some time. The clinician must be aware of the possibility of Wegener's granulomatosis presenting initially with intraoral lesions. Prompt biopsies and blood studies along with the proper referrals will give the patient their best chance at a remission with the least systemic damage. We present a case of Wegener's granulomatosis that presented with oral lesions before other signs and symptoms.
