Oral myiasis: report of two cases.

Case reports are presented of two patients from Oman who developed myiasis in the palate. Both suffered from cerebral palsy and had incompetent lips, anterior open bite and very poor oral hygiene. Both patients had denuded areas of hard palate anteriorly. In both cases large numbers of maggots were found under the surrounding mucoperiosteam. Removal of the maggots and debridement resulted in resolution of the condition.
