Is Dysplasia the Sole Determinant of the Prognosis in Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders?

Abstract

Background

The dynamic nature of oral epithelial dysplasia, involving both progression and regression over time, complicates prognostic predictions for the lesion.

Objective

This paper addresses the intricacies of this challenge and advocates for a nuanced strategy. It proposes a comprehensive assessment, tailored to individual patients, incorporating genetic, behavioral, and medical factors to enhance the precision of lesion evaluation.
