Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), very simply put, is a malignant neoplasm of the squamous cell or keratinocyte. Various factors induce DNA mutations in the squamous cell, causing excess proliferation of these cells leading to cancer.

Trivia:
This video was created in early 2022 and was also the last video (out of at least 100 videos) I had made for HackDentistry. The idea when creating this was to experiment and make an academic tutorial that had a blend of a comic and cinema (through comic illustrations, story telling and background music, though I still feel I could do a lot better). The idea has always been to make learning academic material as fun as possible.

Hopefully I would find the time to make more videos and for free in the near future.
