Exploring the prevalence and risk factors of benign and premalignant oral lesions in an adult population from Northern Spain : a pilot study
OBJECTIVE: The goal was to identify the lifestyle risk factors associated with benign and potentially malignant oral disorders.
METHOD AND MATERIALS: The study enrolled first-time patients from the Oral Pathology Section, volunteers from Oviedo, and first-time patients from University of Oviedo dental clinic. Patients underwent a survey that included sociodemographic information, lifestyle habits, and medical history. Then, a comprehensive examination of the oral mucosa was conducted. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were conducted using R software.
RESULTS: Among the 183 participants, the most prevalent lesions were varicose veins (43.2%), cheek/lip biting (34.97%) and coated tongue (33.3%). Among the OPMDs (16.4%), oral lichen planus (OLP, 12.64%) and leukoplakia (3.3%). Tobacco was associated with melanotic pigmentation (OR 3.87, p= 0.001) and coated tongue (OR 5.90, p= 0.001). Longer intervals since last check-up were associated with traumatic keratosis (OR 2.05, p=035). Age and heavy smoking were found to have higher risk of developing an OPMD (OR 1.04, p=0.035 and OR 7.35, p=0.028 respectively).
CONCLUSIONS: Our data should be considered when organizing public health programs focused on the detection and screening of heavy smokers. It is also important to strengthen the oral pathology units in universities as reference centres for students to acquire the necessary knowledge for their diagnosis and treatment, while simultaneously promoting awareness of this risk factor for oral precancer among the general population.
