    Abstract:
    Sjögren's syndrome is an auto-immune disease involving exocrine glands causing amongst others xerostomia and dry eyes. Many other tissues may be affected as well. Early recognition of this disease may help to alleviate signs and symptoms and is, thus, important. The aim of this paper is to provide the dentist with knowledge to enable him to timely diagnose the oral component of Sjögren's syndrome as well as to give guidelines for the treatment.
