Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Zang Lui

Mouth and throat cancers are included in the category of oral cancer. On the tongue, the skin lining the mouth and gums, beneath the tongue, at the base of the tongue, and in the region of the neck towards the rear of the mouth, oral malignancies can grow. More than twice as many men as women are affected by oral cancer, which most frequently affects adults over the age of 40. The majority of oral malignancies are linked to cigarette use, alcohol consumption (or both), or human papilloma virus infection (HPV). Because each patient presents the treating doctors with a different set of issues, the care of oral cancer is a multidisciplinary endeavour that affects both survival and quality of life. The care of oral cancer is the main topic of this essay. We highlight the epidemiology of oral cancer in Australia, its risk factors, the numerous clinical manifestations that can develop, and its staging. Surgery continues to be the mainstay of treatment in the great majority of cases. Oncology and radiation therapy are frequently utilised adjuvant. From the early discovery to optimising pre-treatment dental health and managing the short- and long-term aftereffects of therapy, dental professionals play a key role in various stages of care. A crucial responsibility is to monitor for recurrence and the emergence of new primary tumours.
