Abstract

Background: Many factors have been identified as important causative agents that responsible for the development of oral precancerous and cancerous lesions. In Sudan, Toombak have been identified as a major risk factor. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the cellular proliferative activity that associated with Toombak use. Methodology: In this study 75 apparently healthy individuals were selected for this study, of whom 50 were currently Toombak users (cases) and 25 were non-Toombak users (controls), Pap. Method and Silver technique were used for the staining of oral smears. Results: Cytological atypia was identified in 10 cases and 4 controls. The mean count NORs count was 4.6 in cases and 2.2 in controls. Conclusion: Toombak is a major risk for occurrence of cellular proliferative activity features that may progress in to oral precancerous or cancerous lesions.
