Oral Cancer: Facts and Figures

One of the top 10 malignancies in the world, oral cancer is cancer that begins in the oral cavity. The tongue, the floor of the mouth, gums, and the lips are the most typical sites of involvement. Almost 127,000 people die from oral cancer each year, making it a serious health issue on a global scale.

One of the lowest rates of all major tumors, the five-year survival rate for patients with oral cancer in the United States is just 54% overall; in underdeveloped nations, it falls below 30%. In America only, oral cancer affects close to 50,000 people annually, 70% of whom are men. Oral cancer will kill 9,750 people this year, killing almost one person every hour.

Oral Cancer: Common Risk Factors

  • Tobacco of all kinds (Smoking, Chewing, Vape)
  • Heavy Alcohol consumption
  • Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection through sexual transmission
  • Prolonged sun exposure
  • More prevalent in men over the age of 40

Oral Cancer: Common Clinical Symptoms

  • Swelling and rough eroded areas on lips, gums, cheek, or parts of oral cavity
  • A sore, irritation, lump or thick patch in the mouth, lip, or throat
  • Velvety white or red patch in the mouth
  • Hoarseness of voice and difficulty moving the jaw or tongue
  • Difficulty chewing, swallowing, or speaking
  • Swelling of the jaw that causes dentures to fit poorly or become uncomfortable
  • Numbness in the tongue or other areas of the mouth
  • Ear pain

Oral Cancer Diagnosis

Comprehensive head and neck examination, thorough oral examination, handheld fluorescence-based devices, biopsy, exfoliative cytology, HPV testing, and imaging (X-ray, MRI, CT/CAT Scan, PET scan, etc.) are all included in the evaluation.

Oral Cancer Management

Depending upon the clinical picture, oral cancer is treated surgically to remove the malignant lesion, followed with radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy.

Oral Cancer and Chemo Mouth

The impacts of radiation and chemotherapy have a significant impact on oral microflora, including disruptions in the oral bio-balance leading to xerostomia, burning sensations, dental caries (radiation caries), gum infections, ulcerations, etc. It further lead to difficulty in swallowing.

A significant issue is constantly maintaining the best possible dental health both before and after cancer treatment. Regular dental check-up is important, but so is maintaining good oral health by using a toothbrush and mouthwash. The majority of commercial mouthwashes on the market are alcohol-based and contain preservatives and dyes that exacerbate oral ulceration, burning, and irritation.

H2Ocean’s natural enzyme-enriched mouthwash with sea salt and xylitol greatly improves dental hygiene while leaving no burning feeling. H2Ocean’s proprietary healing rinse was created without the use of hazardous chemical solutions, alcohol, or fluoride.
