Abstract :
It is observed that various forms of tobacco use leads to development of oral mucosal lesions. The aim of the study was to identify the prevalence of the oral premalignant and malignant lesions in patients with a history of oral habits and to identify the relationship between the habit and development of lesion. To achieve the study aims, a prospective study involving 200 patients with oral mucosal lesions were selected. A male predominance with the habits of Gutkha and betel quid chewing predominated among the patient population. Oral carcinoma constituted the maximum number of cases. The buccal mucosa was the most commonly involved site. It can be observed through this study that, oral habits pertaining to tobacco, arecanut chewing contribute significantly to the development of dysplastic changes in the oral mucosa either as an independent habit or as a mixed habit.
