The good news is the LP is never been conclusively proven to be a precursor to oral cancer, though some less informed web sites with old information still show it as a risk factor...(and some of them bigger names than us) which is not the current thinking. I just wanted to be sure you were using our search engine at http://www.oralcancerfoundation.org/search.htm and not the one here on the message boards which only searches postings.

One thing about the information on the OCF site is that it is vetted and rechecked every six months by docs on our advisory board. And I challenge any other site to have an oral cancer group better respected than this science advisory board when it comes to this particular disease. To most, OC is only one of many things that they are talking about, and even if they have MD's reviewing their sites info, unless you are talking to an OC authority and specialist.... well we have all had our experiences with docs that are not up to speed.
