| Our paper | - | This review offers a thorough assessment of DL and ML models for diagnosing OC | H | H | H | H |
| [3] | 2020 | In order to lower the frequency of OC in India, this study emphasized the significance of early identification, adequate treatment, and prevention. | N | N | H | H |
| [26] | 2021 | This review concluded that it is essential to differentiate between malignant and benign cells while diagnosing OSCC. Additionally, it included a general summary of the elements of a delayed OC assessment. | L | M | L | N |
| [27] | 2020 | The results of SCCOC therapy in a newly published major series were presented in this study. It has been established that improved early detection techniques and understanding, as well as increased education concerning the risk factors connected to lifestyle choices, are essential for both the primary and secondary prevention of OC. | N | N | L | L |
| [28] | 2012 | The authors noted that men and people aged over 65 years had greater rates of lip cancer. The results demonstrated that SCC patients displayed typical clinical and epidemiological features to those identified in prior investigations. | N | N | H | N |
| [29] | 2020 | This study was the first comprehensive evaluation that aimed to assess the clinicopathological characteristics of PIOSCC and potential etiological factors related to its prognosis. | N | N | H | H |
| [30] | 2019 | According to the results of this study, an OPMD may serve as a risk factor for the development of OC. Although there are active clinical trials and recommendations to remove high-risk lesions, there are currently no effective chemopreventive strategies available. | N | N | M | H |
| [31] | 2021 | The findings of this study implied that cutting-edge AI methods can contribute in an unobtrusive way to the early detection of OC. | H | H | M | M |
| [32] | 2003 | According to this research, ameloblastoma cases should be thoroughly examined to discover small histological changes that could indicate aggressive behavior by comparing the tumors’ histologic pattern to their biological behavior. | N | N | L | L |
| [33] | 2022 | This study’s conclusions demonstrated the need for all patients with non-healing lip lesions to have a full physical examination that includes an intraoral examination and a review of their medical history. When lip cancer is accurately diagnosed and staged, it can be treated quickly and with the best surgical procedure possible for the greatest results. | N | N | L | N |
| [17] | 2022 | This research demonstrated the value of ML applications for the prognosis and treatment of potentially malignant (pre-cancerous) oral lesions. | H | M | L | L |
| [18] | 2022 | ML and DL classification techniques for OC detection were studied in this study. Several studies revealed that the ML model works admirably in diagnostic and prognostic investigations of oral cancer. To be used in routine clinical practice, these models need to be enhanced to increase their interpretability and they require external evaluation for generalizability utilizing deep hybrid learning approaches. | H | H | L | L |
| [19] | 2021 | Most OC outcomes can be predicted using ML algorithms with good accuracy. Furthermore, this study concluded that because these outcomes are uncommon, it is necessary to use class imbalance strategies to handle the skewness of the data. | H | H | L | L |
