    Extractions: According to the CDC, over 25,000 to 30,000 new cases of oral and pharyngeal cancer is diagnosed and over 8,000 deaths occur due to oral cancer. It has been found to be more common in African American males. There is only a fifty percent (50%) survival rate and the methods used to treat oral cancers have been quite expensive and do have a disfiguring result.

    UB study links gum disease with oral cancer risk. Survival from oral cancer,as with most cancers, depends on the stage of the disease at diagnosis.

    Extractions: University at Buffalo BUFFALO, N.Y. Dental researchers from the University at Buffalo have found a significant association between one measure of periodontal disease and oral pre-cancerous lesions and tumors. Analyzing data from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III), researchers found that persons with serious periodontal disease were at double the risk of having a pre-cancerous lesion and at four times the risk of having an oral tumor of any kind than persons without serious gum disease. Results of the study will be presented on March 15 at the American Association of Dental Research meeting in San Antonio. This is the first finding of a potential link between oral cancer and oral infection," said Sara Grossi, D.D.S., a co-author on the study, "but there is evidence of an infection link in other cancers." She noted research showing an association between H. pylori and stomach cancer, human papillomavirus and cervical cancer, and cytomegalovirus and Kaposi's sarcoma. 'The potential implications of this association of gum disease and oral cancer is enormous," said Grossi, clinical assistant professor of oral biology in the UB School of Dental Medicine.

    Extractions: Facts About Oral Cancer Definition A malignant growth that affects any part of the oral cavity, including the lips, upper or lower jaw, tongue, gums, cheeks, and throat. These types of cancers represent 2%-5% of all forms of cancer, and approximately 30,000 new cases are diagnosed every year. Causes Cigarette, cigar, or pipe smoking; smokeless tobacco; or excessive use of alcohol. There has been a recent increase in the use of smokeless tobacco in any form, such as plug, leaf, and snuff. However, the most popular with adolescent and young adult males is the practice of "dipping snuff." This tobacco product, in the form of a moist powder, is placed between the cheek and gum. Nicotine and other carcinogens are then absorbed directly through the skin. Incidence More than twice as many men as women are diagnosed with oral cancers and most cases occur between 50 and 70 years of age. Although the incidence of oral cancer remains low in young adults, those who use smokeless tobacco have a higher risk of developing cancer of the cheek and gum. Warning Signs A red or white patch or a lump anywhere in the mouth that lasts for more than a month, or a sore that bleeds easily or doesn't heal. Difficulty in chewing, swallowing or moving the tongue and jaw are later symptoms.

    http://cpmcnet.columbia.edu/texts/gcps/gcps0026.html
    
    Extractions: Screening for Oral Cancer RECOMMENDATION There is insufficient evidence to recommend for or against routine screening of asymptomatic persons for oral cancer by primary care clinicians. All patients should be counseled to discontinue the use of all forms of tobacco (see Chapter 54) and to limit consumption of alcohol (see Chapter 52). Clinicians should remain alert to signs and symptoms of oral cancer and premalignancy in persons who use tobacco or regularly use alcohol. Burden of Suffering The term "oral cancer" includes a diverse group of tumors arising from the oral cavity. Usually included are cancers of the lip, tongue, pharynx, and oral cavity. The annual incidence of oral cancer in the U.S. is about 11/100,000 population, with a male/female ratio greater than 2:1.1 Oral cancer is responsible for 2% of all cancer deaths in the U.S., and it is projected to account for over 28,000 new cases and about 8,400 deaths in 1995.2 Fifty-three percent of oral cancers have spread to regional or distant structures at the time of diagnosis.1 Overall 5-year survival is 52%, but it ranges from 79% for localized disease to 19% if distant metastases are present.1 The natural history of each type of cancer can be quite different. Cancer of the lip accounts for 11% of new cases of oral cancer but only 1% of deaths. In contrast, cancer of the pharynx accounts for 31% of new cases of oral cancer but 50% of deaths.1 The median age at diagnosis of oral cancers is 64 years, and 95% occur in persons over age 40. About half of all oropharyngeal cancers and the majority of deaths from this disease occur in persons over age 65.1

    Extractions: Check for oral cancer In the past decade, the dental profession has seen a considerable increase in the number of oral cancer patients under age 30 who have no identifiable risk factors of contracting the disease, such as being a user of tobacco and alcohol, according to an article in the December 2002 issue of AGD Impact, the monthly newsmagazine of the Academy of General Dentistry. Although national surveys show that the U.S. adult population is ill informed about the risk factors of developing oral cancers, as well as its signs and symptoms, most dentists perform oral cancer exams. "Patients under 30 need to speak to their dentist if they are not receiving oral cancer exams, or if they believe they are candidates for oral cancer," says Howard S. Glazer, DDS, FAGD, spokesperson for the Academy. "The dentist will check the head, neck and mouth for signs oral cancer, and take swift action if oral cancer is found. Dentists must screen patients who have risk factors and those who do not, since twenty-five percent of oral cancer patients have none," says Dr. Glazer. The most frequent sites for cancer are the tongue, the floor of the mouth, tissues in back of the tongue, lips, and gums. If not diagnosed and treated in its early stages, oral cancer can spread, leading to chronic pain, loss of function, irreparable facial and oral disfigurement following surgery, and even death.

The vast majority of oral cancers occur in people older than 45 years, with men being twice as likely as women to develop the disease. The most frequent oral cancer sites are the tongue, the floor of the mouth, soft palate tissues in back of the tongue, lips, and gums. If not diagnosed and treated in its early stages, oral cancer can spread, leading to chronic pain, loss of function, irreparable facial and oral disfigurement following surgery, and even death. Your general dentist can perform a thorough screening for oral cancer. What causes oral cancer? Scientists aren't sure of the exact cause of oral cancer. However, the carcinogens in tobacco products, alcohol and certain foods, as well as excessive exposure to the sun have been found to increase the risk of developing oral cancer. Risk factors for oral cancer may also be genetically inherited. What are the warning signs to watch out for?
