Promotion and Prevention of Oral Cancer in the Digital Era

Abstract

The rising incidence of oral cancers highlights the urgent need for effective prevention and control strategies. This chapter explores the role of digital technologies in promoting and preventing oral cancer in the digital era. An electronic literature search was carried out in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, focusing on articles published from January 2016 to August 2024. The findings indicate that digital platforms are powerful tools for promoting awareness of oral cancer. These platforms facilitate the dissemination of information about risk factors, symptoms, screening methods, and preventive measures. Research on digital technology in the promotion, screening, and prevention of oral cancer provides valuable insights into the potential applications and challenges of integrating these tools into clinical practice. Further research is needed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness, scalability, and long-term outcomes of digital interventions in oral cancer management.
