Oral Cancer Maxillofacial & Dental Surgery (Dr Ankit Khandelwal)

Early detection of oral cancer or mouth cancer can significantly improve treatment options and outcomes. This clinical case highlights the importance of recognizing oral cancer risk factors, particularly tobacco use and supari/areca nut chewing. The patient also had poor dental hygiene, malnutrition and anemia. Persistent mouth ulcers, red or white patches, unexplained oral bleeding, lumps or swelling, loose teeth, persistent oral pain, or difficulty chewing and swallowing should be evaluated, particularly when they do not resolve within 2–3 weeks. People who regularly consume tobacco, gutkha, khaini, zarda, pan masala or supari/areca nut should consider periodic oral examination and oral cancer screening.
