Oral cancer is a serious disease with a poor prognosis, particularly with the all-too-frequent late presentation. Dental practitioners have an important role to play in prevention of the disease. They can contribute both in primary prevention, by educating their patients about risk factors, and in secondary prevention, by early diagnosis and referral. In this article the author discusses the issues involved.
