Dominic Augustine, Roopa S Rao, Manish, Shankargouda Patil, Tina Elizabeth Jacob

Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSF) has been reported almost exclusively among Indians living in India and among other Asiatics, with a reported prevalence ranging up to 0.4% in Indian rural population. The need to initiate early treatment is due to the fact that OSF carries a high risk of malignant transformation (7.6%).
