Orofacial granulomatosis (OFG) is a condition characterized by granulomatous inflammation of regions of the mouth, jaw and face ( maxillofacial), in the absence of a recognised systemic condition known to cause granulomas. Features include lip enlargement, swelling inside and around the mouth, oral ulcerations (sores), and inflammation of the gums ( gingivitis).

Orofacial granulomatosis may occur in the Melkerssonn–Rosenthal syndrome, granulomatous cheilitis of Miescher, oral Crohn's disease, sarcoidosis and focal dental sepsis. The increased prevalence of atopy in patients with orofacial granulomatosis and the association with food intolerance suggests the possibility of a role for allergy in at least some cases.

Unrecognised food allergies (e.g. to benzoic acid, flavourings, cinnamaldehyde, cinnamon, and chocolate in food), reactions to dental materials and infections have all been proposed, although the evidence for these is not strong.

Although the literature suggests it is more common in younger age groups, this may include patients with Crohn disease as most children diagnosed with granulomas in orofacial sites are subsequently found to have Crohn disease. allergy (for example to certain foods or additives).
