Abstract: A literature review on oral cancer was carried out with the aim of synthesising up-to-date information on this entity, its risk factors, diagnosis and prevention. Twenty-six bibliographic sources were consulted, including 12 journals, 9 books and 5 scientific articles. It was found to be one of the most common causes of death among all diagnosed cancers, which occurs more frequently in the male sex and in the older adult population, although everyone is susceptible to it. It is concluded that routine clinical examination and the use of diagnostic aids are the most effective measures to reduce the morbimortality of oral cancer, recommending healthy habits and lifestyles for its prevention.
