About Oral Onco-surgery
Oral onco-surgery treats cancers and tumours of the mouth and jaws. Oral cancer is very common in India, strongly linked to tobacco, gutka and betel quid.
Early detection is life-saving: see a doctor for any mouth ulcer, patch or lump lasting more than three weeks. Surgery may need reconstruction to restore chewing and speech.
