Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Tumors in the oral region occur more frequently in men over 40, but can affect people of both gender and all ages, even children. The prevention of oral cancer acquires relevance in public health, particularly if the investigators consider that the preventive approach is compatible with the nature of this disease, as the mouth favors easy visual access. The objective of this study is evaluation the prevalence of oral and perioral injuries in workers who were exposed to the sun on the beaches, investigating possible associations of a sociodemographic, occupational and general health nature.

- description
- Workers must undergo clinical examinations of the upper and lower lips, performed by previously calibrated researchers, through semi-technical inspection and palpation maneuvers, in order to identify injuries. Photo cameras can be used to improve the visibility of the lips using the image enhancement feature, to confirm the diagnosis. The clinical examination will include: dryness, atrophy, scaly lesions, lip swelling, erythema, ulcerations, cloudy demarcations between the vermilion of the lip and skin, demarcated folds along the lip, white spots or plaques, crusts, stained or pale areas. They should be evaluated with the application of a previously validated questionnaire containing information related to personal data, information on occupation and health was completed according to the responses of the volunteers. The OHIP-14 quality of life questionnaire will be applied together
