Oral cancer is a type of cancer that can be cured, especially if it is detected early. There are three main treatment options for maxillofacial, oral or oropharyngeal cancer: surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy or a combination of them.

The treatment options depend on different factors:
- The type and extent of the cancer.
