IN THE BATTLE AGAINST ORAL CANCER, LATE DETECTION IS A RECURRING THEME DENTISTS AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS HAVE ENCOUNTERED IN THEIR INTERACTIONS WITH PATIENTS. THIS COMMON NARRATIVE IS REGRETTABLE AND CALLS FOR A CHANGE.

While dental students receive training in various aspects of oral health, including anatomy and treatment modalities, there is a notable lack of emphasis on oral premalignant disorders. This oversight can leave dentists ill-equipped to identify early warning signs and intervene promptly. Students enrolled in this course will learn about the following key skills and more:

[1] Early Detection and Diagnosis

Dentists are in a prime position to detect and diagnose oral premalignant disorders during regular oral examinations. Early detection allows for timely intervention and management to prevent the progression to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).

[2] Patient Education

Dentists play a crucial role in educating patients about the risk factors associated with oral premalignant disorders, including tobacco use, alcohol consumption, and poor oral hygiene. By providing guidance on preventive measures, dentists can contribute to reducing the incidence of these disorders.

[3] Treatment and Referral

Dentists are often involved in the management and treatment of oral premalignant disorders. They may perform biopsies, provide treatments, or refer patients for further evaluation by specialists. Their knowledge ensures proper care and timely interventions for patients with potentially malignant lesions.

DENTAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS OFTEN FALL SHORT IN ADEQUATELY PREPARING DENTISTS TO RECOGNIZE AND RESPOND TO THESE POTENTIALLY MALIGNANT LESIONS.

  • identify effective strategies for preventing oral cancer at both the patient and population levels
  • learn ways of detecting the disease, especially in "at risk" populations
  • define risk factors
  • understand how to diagnose oral diseases in vital clinical settings
  • see the effectiveness of collaborative approaches within healthcare systems
  • prevent unfavorable or fatal situations that may arise from late detection of oral cancer in patients for both themselves and their patients

ORAL CANCER REMAINS A SIGNIFICANT GLOBAL HEALTH CONCERN, WITH A STAGGERING NUMBER OF NEW CASES DIAGNOSED EACH YEAR.

Early detection of oral premalignant disorders is vital in preventing the progression to oral cancer and improving patient outcomes. By understanding the risk factors and manifestations of oral premalignant disorders, dentists can actively engage in preventive measures and oral health promotion to reduce the prevalence of these conditions within their patient population.

CURRICULUM OVERVIEW

BY INCREASING AWARENESS AND UNDERSTANDING OF THESE LESIONS, DENTISTS AND OTHER HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS CAN MAKE A MEANINGFUL IMPACT ON PATIENT OUTCOMES AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE LARGER EFFORT TO REDUCE THE BURDEN OF ORAL CANCER.

General Dentists, Dental Specialists, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, Plastic Surgeons, Public Health Specialists, Radiologists, ENT specialists, Oncologists, Prosthodontists, and Pathologists can all benefit from this course.
