- Smokeless tobacco (SLT) is linked to severe oral health issues, including oral cancer, with various products showing addictive and potentially cancerous effects.
- A cross-sectional study collected data from 59 SLT users to analyze the type and severity of oral lesions and their correlation with SLT exposure.
- Results indicated that while most patients experienced regression or healing of lesions after quitting SLT, 18.6% developed oral squamous cell carcinoma, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and intervention.
