Resumo: The present study aims to report a case of secondary syphilis with oral manifestation. Female patient, 30 years old, caucasian, with multiple lesions in the mouth that did not heal after 15 days. During the anamnesis, the patient reported unprotected sexual intercourse and vaginal discharge. In the intraoral clinical examination, we observed whitish mucous plaques not removed by scraping with a "velvety" appearance located on the lingual edge of the right side and hard palate, without painful symptoms. With a diagnostic hypothesis of syphilis in the secondary phase, two complementary tests were requested, VDRL and FTA-ABs, which presented a positive result, confirming the diagnosis of syphilis. Three weeks after the antibiotic treatment, the patient returno without any sign of the lesions. It is important to highlight the role of the dental surgeon in the diagnosis of systemic diseases with oral manifestation, including cases of sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis.
