🚭 Did you know that smoking is one of the primary risk factors for developing oral cancer? Tobacco smoke contains carcinogens that can damage DNA in the cells of the oral cavity, leading to mutations and cancer. The risk is even greater when smoking is combined with alcohol, as both substances have synergistic effects that significantly increase the likelihood of cancer development. Protect your health by understanding these risks and taking preventive action. For more information on reducing your risk, visit our website or call us today ☎️ 773-245-5253. https://lnkd.in/ePETwXRQ  #OralCancer #SmokingRisks #CancerPrevention #HealthAwareness #OralHealth #StopSmoking #PatientCare #OralCancerInstitute #PreventiveCare #Healthcare

🔬 Understanding Oral Dysplasia Grading: Oral dysplasia is graded based on the extent of abnormal cell changes seen under a microscope. The grading includes mild (lower third of epithelium), moderate (middle third), and severe (more than two-thirds). Severe dysplasia has a high risk of progressing to invasive cancer. Regular screenings and early interventions are essential to prevent progression.
