Abstract

This article presents a study that analyzed potentially malignant lesions in the oral cavity. The study examined data from 62 patients in Romania and found that older adults, particularly those over 50 years old, had a higher prevalence of these lesions. There was also a gender disparity, with actinic cheilitis being more common in males. The study emphasizes the importance of early detection and regular monitoring to prevent malignant transformation. The study also suggests the potential use of laser treatments as therapeutic alternatives. [Extracted from the article]
