Oral Cancer: Causes

Most cases of oral cancer are because of cigarette smoking, heavy alcohol use or the use of both tobacco and alcohol consumptions. Using tobacco plus alcohol poses a much greater risk than using either substance alone. HPV Infection with the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus has been linked to a subset of oral cancers.  Cancer of the lip can be caused by sun exposure. A low nutrient diet because of fewer intakes of fruits and vegetables may play a role in oral cancer development. Risk increases with age. Oral cancer most often occurs in people over the age of 40.
