Genetic alterations that lead to loss or changes in tumour-suppressor genes are known to contribute to oral carcinogenesis. Traditional molecular methods to detect such losses have relied on mutation analysis or deletion of the gene. However, epigenetic mechanisms could also contribute to silencing of tumour-suppressor genes. Methylation regions ri...
