However, the safety of long-term use of these products on oral health is still questionable. E-cigarettes may have potential risks to oral health that can be demonstrated as cellular damage, genetic instability, and mucosal lesions. This review aims to observe the role of e-cigarettes as a risk factor for oral cancer development.</p><p><strong>Material and methods: </strong>This systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines to provide reliable data on the role of electronic cigarettes as a risk factor for oral cancer development. The research was performed on Pubmed and Scopus by three reviewers from the Oral Pathology Department (Sapienza University of Rome) in May 2024. The search terms included: \"e-cigarette\", \"oral cancer\", and \"risk factor\" where 32 articles from PubMed and 75 from Scopus were collected.

The risk of bias assessment of <i>in vitro</i> studies revealed low or unknown risk. None of the studies had any industrial sponsoring and almost all the papers (90%) had the same methods, 64% measured the cell vitality.
