      abstract = {Oral cancer is frequently diagnosed late, when the disease  has advanced with lesions that are large and deeply  invasive and with metastasis to regional lymph nodes,  leading to increased mortality. Moreover, late diagnosis  and treatment often result in considerable morbidity of  oral and maxillofacial structures and poor appearance and  function following therapy. This book provides head and  neck oncologists, oral oncologists, oral and maxillofacial  surgeons, medical oncologists, dentists and other members  of dental teams furnishing supportive care with a  systematic review of recent diagnostic and therapeutic  advances in oral cancer. The various authoritative chapters  are prepared by specialists who are active leaders in each  basic and clinical field. All chapters address individual  and collective issues that arise in managing oral cancer  patients with difficult treatment problems and provide  insight into the multiple valid management approaches  available. The authors offer an extensive source of  information about oral cancers and encourage the clinician  to be flexible and innovative, giving physicians and  medical personnel the background information to make the  best, educated, responsible decisions for individual  patients.},
