One hundred consecutive coloured and 100 consecutive white European (light skinned causasoids—LSC) patients were examined to determine the incidence of buccal pigmentation. In the coloured patients it was 38% and in the LSC patients 5%.In these 5 LSC patients general examination and investigation revealed none of the disorders usually associated with buccal pigmentation, which cannot therefore be regarded as necessarily a sign of systemic disease, notably Addison's disease.In coloured patients the presence of buccal pigmentation is rarely of diagnostic significance.
