Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Carcinogenesis of SOX-9

    3 years

Study Arms (3)

Normal team

Subjects who have problem at third molar of impacted tooth need to receive a surgery with general anesthesia. Subjects must: Should have a blood exam (20ml) before the surgery. Site staff must: Collect subjects' saliva once a day (in the morning before breakfast) for 3 consecutive days. Collect a 0.5x0.5Cm2 tissue sample around third molar during the surgery.

Oral dysplasia

Subjects who are diagnosed with dysplasia of oral cavity. Subjects must: Should have a blood exam (20ml/each time) before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery. In the case the disease recurs after the surgery, subjects need to receive the surgery again and take another blood exam before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery. Before the surgery site staff must: Collect saliva once a day (in the morning before breakfast) for 3 consecutive days. Collect a 0.5x0.5Cm2 tissue sample of the tumor during the surgery.

Oral cancer

Subjects who suffer from oral cancer. Subjects must: Should have a blood exam (20ml/each time) before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery. In the case the disease recurs after the surgery, subjects need to receive the surgery again and take another blood exam before the surgery and 3 months after the surgery. Before the surgery site staff must: Collect subjects' saliva once a day (in the morning before breakfast) for 3 consecutive days. Collect a 0.5x0.5Cm2 tissue sample of the tumor during the surgery.
