Oral precancer and cancer: etiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management
1Dental and Oral Medicine, Johns Hopkins Medical Center, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Abstract:
Oral and oropharyngeal cancers represent 3% of all cancers in the United States annually, with nearly 50% of people diagnosed with oral and oropharyngeal cancers dying as a result of the disease.

This article presents the clinical appearance, explains the origins, and describes steps for the management of oral precancer and cancer.
