Abstract:

 


As an increasing type of cancer, oral cancer is associated with many risk factors. It is necessary for patients to have information about this subject to be prevented and easily treated with the help of early diagnosis. This study aims to evaluate oral cancer patients’ knowledge and awareness in Rize population. The study was conducted on total of 251 volunteer patients, filling in a face to face questionnaire. Besides personal questions, 16 questions were asked to measure oral cancer knowledge level. The data were analyzed with SPSS program. The average number of correct answers was found 12. An inverse significant relationship was found between age and total knowledge level (p  0.05). It was seen that alcohol use was a risk factor for oral cancer compared to patients who did not use alcohol (p <0.05). Patients should be informed about the etiological factors and symptoms of oral cancers and preventive measures should be taken.
