ABSTRACT
Oral health can be considered a state of complete absence from any form of oro-facial pain, oral and maxillofacial cancer, oral ulcers and embryological disorders such as cleft lip and palate, periodontal disorders, caries and subsequent loss of tooth, and any other form of diseases that affect the oral cavity. A quality oral health permits a person to carry out any necessary oral functions which, includes speech and mastication without any form of vital diseases and disorders. Considering both sexes as well as the age groups, oro-pharyngeal carcinoma ranks 6th in the world; it is also the third most common site among males in developing countries. In developed countries, men are affected thrice as compared to women, probably because of increased consumption of alcohol and tobacco. Socioeconomic discrepancies are considered to be playing a major role. The main aim of the review is to recognize the potential risk factors involved in the development of oral cancer.
