Abstract

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common form of oral cancer in adults. Because orthodontists often treat many adult patients, practitioners need to be aware of the clinical signs of this malignancy. In this article, we discuss the epidemiology, clinical appearance, and pathology of squamous cell carcinoma, and present the orthodontic management of a patient.
