According to the WHO, oral cancer affects 20 per 1 lakh people in India, accounting for about 30% of all cancers. In India, around 77,000 new cases are reported annually.
As per our mouth cancer specialists, there is no proven method of preventing mouth cancer. However, if you do the following, you can lessen your risk of getting mouth cancer:
Stop using tobacco if you do. Don't start smoking if you don't already. Chewing or smoking tobacco exposes the cells in your mouth to chemicals that can cause cancer.
If you take alcohol, do so in moderation. Chronic excessive alcohol consumption can irritate the cells of your mouth making them vulnerable to mouth cancer. For healthy adults, no more than one drink per day is allowed. Women of all ages and men over the age of 65 should not have more than two drinks per day.
