Oral cancer is a serious medical condition that develops in the tissues of the mouth, including the lips, tongue, cheeks, floor of the mouth, hard and soft palate, and gums. It is one of the most common forms of head and neck cancers in India, primarily linked to tobacco chewing, smoking, alcohol consumption, and poor oral hygiene. In some cases, viral infections such as Human Papillomavirus may also contribute to its development. Early signs often appear as a non-healing ulcer, red or white patches inside the mouth, difficulty in chewing or swallowing, numbness in the tongue, jaw stiffness, or unexplained bleeding. Many individuals ignore these symptoms, assuming they are minor dental issues, which can delay diagnosis. Proper evaluation includes a thorough oral examination, imaging tests, and biopsy to confirm the stage and nature of the disease. Surgical treatment remains the mainstay for oral cancer management, aiming at complete tumor removal with adequate margins to prevent recurrence. Advances in reconstructive surgery have made it possible to restore appearance and function, helping patients regain speech clarity and swallowing ability after surgery.
